So, I am taking on the Passport "challenge" this year. NC has a State Park passport. Whenever you visit a park, you get a stamp. After 10 stamps, you get some stuff, after 20, stuff, etc. Complete 40 state parks and a piece of the Mountains to Sea Trail in 365, you get a secret prize. Since I'm focusing on paying off credit cards and saving for Alaska, this is the perfect thing for me to do so that I don't get all antsy and make a last minute trip. I'm going to be camping at some of the parks, too (you may remember from the Camping post). Regardless, because of that, I'm going to have A LOT more pics. I have 5 stamps so far (I started on Jan 18th). Here's some pictures from 4 of the parks.
There's quite a few. And I tried to limit it as much as I could. I just liked so many.
These are from Elk Knob State Park. The weather sucked. The hike was hard. The summit had NO view. I thought I was going to die
