A8 #ParkChat I managed to get 4 new-to-me this year. Voyageurs, Cuyahoga Valley, New River Gorge & Dry Tortugas. Quite the variety!

Sad news from the other social media site. Azlan (Beata Azlan) has gone to the 🌈 today. Diagnosed with metastatic cancer yesterday, his family made the most loving gesture after a very difficult night for them all. The sadness this year is just overwhelming. 💔😪
