  • Greetings from George Washington Birthplace National Monument

    We visited with our two dogs. The ranger explained that while the dogs could only go on 50% of the property. they could become b.a.r.k Rangers. They got tags to wear as bark Rangers. I thought this was such a cute idea! The ranger was friendly and informative as well.…

  • Greetings from Saratoga National Historical Park

    Rob advised us as to the Tour Road layout , back stories to several stops, and how to continue to Schuylerville. He was most informative, and humorous - very welcoming and invested in our experience at the Park. He really added to our time there- a most moving experience. Thank…

  • Greetings from Glacier National Park

    Back in 1987 my sister, her husband and I decided that we would visit Yellowstone and Glacier parks. Yellowstone was spectacular (of course) but Glacier was beyond!! At that time we were young and more fit and decided we would hike to Sperry Chalet. We spent the night at Lake…

  • Greetings from Zion National Park

    Took the shuttle to one of our bucket list hikes, Angel’s Landing and the Ranger gave us a great history and landmark tour on the way! Our Rangers and all national park employees are national treasures and deserve better from this administration.

    thoroughly enjoyed it. Wish Robert E Lee were around to this day
