"The Scripture of Nature": our National Parks


(photo by Patrick Smith)

Utah has more National Parks than any other state in the lower 49. (although the picture above is of Yosemite National Park in CA - not sure why I chose that pictures besides the fact that it's breathtaking) I love the idea of National Parks and I am proud that past leaders in our country took the initiative to preserve the beautiful places. I have only been able to watch a snippet of this video since it's a work day, but so far it is really awesome. Will have to watch the rest tonight. Maybe you'll like it too.

You're such a socialist, you know. Using tax dollars to buy up land from private citizens to put them in commons for the average citizen to enjoy. Don't let the Fockers know you like National Parks...
