Pirates, Spies and the Parks
ParkChat
Q1 #ParkChat The @NatlParkService lists and protects 13 sites that were hubs of activity for pirates. Can you name at least one? Extra points if you’ve been to one and describe your experience.
A1) @CapeHatterasNPS and @FortRaleighNPS for sure. #parkchat https://t.co/Iarbr2Q0Pv
A1) Jean Lafitte NHP & PRES! We've been and gone on the boat tour, lots of fun! #parkchat #pirates @JeanLafitteNPS #travel
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1 West Shipp Island at Davis Bayou National Seashore off coast of Gulfport, Mississippi. We were there March 2013 #parkchat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1: Didn’t Have time for research this week. Interested to learn tonight. #ParkChat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1 Did zero research but am guessing Florida parks for some of the places. #ParkChat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1. A little bias, but Ocracoke in CAHA was a favorite hideout of Blackbeard and the site of his death 300 years ago this year! #ParkChat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService #parkchat A1 No bonus points for us, unless there were pirates on the Great Lakes! 😄 I'd bet @BiscayneNPS is one by its position in the Atlantic.
A1 I'm just going to name @JeanLafitteNPS, cause I don't feel like a challenge now #parkchat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1) There's Jean Lafitte National Historical Park & Preserve in Louisiana which I believe that the Lead Ranger at John Muir National Historic Site use to work at years ago. 😏 #ParkChat
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1 Guessing any of several Florida or Caribbean sites. #parkchat. This landlubber has been to none of those yet.
replying to @59NationalParks @59NationalParks @NatlParkService A1 Any pirate activity @CapeCodNPS ? I visited...a loooong time ago #ParkChat
A1. Anybody that answers all without cheating should receive auto-induction to HOF. Only can think of two off top of head #ParkChat
