A2 Admittedly, I'm more likely in parks during daylight hours, but I've certainly caught night sky objects, have camped in parks etc., and it is always awe-inspiring when the same things you might see at home look 20X bigger or brighter under a clear park sky. #ParkChat

Not for nothing, but I've been to most of the presidential libraries. McKinley's is easily my least favorite one and not a good argument for all of the things named for him. 😂

One of the good things about a growing but modest cap collection is organizing/finding them is not that big a deal. 😂

A7 I felt I learned quite a bit about women's contributions to the World War II effort while with @kristamuscarella.bsky.social at the Rosie the Riveter NHS this past July.

A4. Glad you said favorite and not best, because seeing a manatee was just not something I expected while in Big Cypress back in January. #ParkChat

A1 #ParkChat Tough, fair question. It was time to move on from X for sure, but BS strikes me as adequate at best. I do not like it's inability to refresh, and how it won't stick on Recent instead of Top.
And, while we've found some good new friends, it seems we lost some too.

Hard to say. The Ranger talk at Sand Creek Massacre NHS or just the exhibits at Brown v the BoE NHS were both very much the latter for me back in June.

6 Maybe Coolidge, as his home in VT looks like it would make a nice NPS site.
Or Zachary Taylor, if this is a trick question since you've been posting about him...
