Sad day for me - found out I may have to scale back my next NP trip b/c our health "care" system sucks - 23% premium increase #MedicareForAll #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.

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 @NatlParkPodcast @NatlParkPodcast @CapeHatterasNPS @FortRaleighNPS Precisely right. Looking for 11 more. #ParkChat

replying to @Stars252525 @Stars252525 @59NationalParks @NatlParkService Ditto. I'm a flunky on this subject. Not too many pirates in my neck of the woods. More like just poachers. #ParkChat

replying to @ParksandPoints @ParksandPoints @JeanLafitteNPS Oh yeah. Well done. #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 @JeanLafitteNPS We think it's the only #NPS unit named after an actual pirate (fact checker?) #parkchat

A1a Or how about @FireIslandNPS and Boston Harbor Islands, which would also be my answers to the question, "Which are the most fun NPS sites to pronounce with a local accent?" #parkchat
