Smokey the Bear

New Mexico has a ton of National Parks.  But there are also many sites in Southern New Mexico that are not facilitated by the National Parks Service that are notable and worth visiting.  New Mexico is best visited by driving a lot, it is so amazing to watch the scenery because it changes so drastically.  … Continue reading Smokey the Bear

National Parks are an amazing resource for the preservation of our history, natural resources and reflect the wide cultural variances in our nation. All these opinions are my own and I have no affiliation with any park entity. Though I kind of want to be a Park Ranger when I grow up.
