Most of my military spouse friends already know that the NPS now is offering FREE annual passes for military starting last Saturday. This is something I encourage you to take advantage of. This is something my family paid for in the past when we were stationed in Lemoore. It completely paid for itself, plus more.
I have added some pictures from SOME of our trips to Sequoia and Yosemite National Park.
Half Dome, December 31st 2008
Sequoia National Park, June 2009
Yosemite,North, August 2009
Geez, 2009 seems like a while ago. That wasn’t the last time we went to a National Park, to be exact it was June of 2011 which means we are over due,
Now living in South Carolina, we have new options.
Here is a list of Parks which you can obtain a pass at and visit, that are within 3 hours.
Francis Marion and Sumter National Forests
Fort Pulaski National Monument
There are a good deal of national wildlife refuges in Georgia within the 3 hour drive as well.
