Hi everybody popping in to #ParkChat for the first time! Sorry to be late. Cynthia from #Minnesota
replying to @jilldudley @jilldudley Welcome! As @t_jh2009 and I ask the questions they will be numbered Q1 and so on. You just respond with your answer A1 (and so on) and #ParkChat
replying to @StevenOnTheMove @StevenOnTheMove No wonder she married you. 🤪 #ParkChat
A2) I love to drive windy mountain roads, with stunning views around every corner. The rest of the family gets super carsick...so that's our best and worst! #ParkChat https://t.co/4165NtyFiE
replying to @publiclandlvr @publiclandlvr It's really a fantastic trip. We can't wait to do it again! #parkchat

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2. Seeing something new, going at my own pace, etc. Lots of enjoyment from road trips. But, traffic, adding to congestion in parks, etc, are less appealing. #parkchat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2 There's always such a sense of freedom for us and the excitement of parks. Worst part is leaving our cats for so long. #ParkChat
replying to @BarnetteJason @BarnetteJason She does love to travel. However, sometimes she "tolerates" the places I want to visit. #ParkChat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2 The driving is both most appealing and least appealing. I like being on open road. I also loathe heavy traffic and folks who drive left lane w/o passing. #parkchat
A1. Experiencing all of Skyline Drive & all of the Blue Ridge Parkway, except for a short portion of the latter. Rolled on into @GreatSmokyNPS. Wonderful trip #parkchat
replying to @hksbks @hksbks @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute I......I missed the #preparky? #ParkChat
A2 What appeals to me is being able to note subtle changes in the landscape, the worst part is the carbon pollution #parkchat
replying to @NatlParkPodcast @NatlParkPodcast @BadlandsNPS Agreed. @BadlandsNPS was a total surprise and delightfully different. #parkchat
replying to @BarnetteJason @BarnetteJason @BlueRidgeNPS I've wanted to do this trip or the entire Natchez Parkway for a long time. #ParkChat

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute A1: #EtoshaNationalPark in #Namibia was outstanding, the wildlife was incredible. I’d never seen zebra or elephants just, you know, right THERE. #ParkChat
A2 We love being out on the open road, exploring new ground. We are hankering for our winter trip out to NM and AZ.
The worst part is driving back with no good stops for days. #parkchat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @GalsWander Dang. Saving this tweet to prove I'm not the worst thing on Twitter after all. #ParkChat
A2. I love road trips! What appeals most is the flexibility. Least is the driving, so I get someone else to do that! 🤣 #ParkChat
replying to @louisbink @louisbink @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute @GreatBasinNPS Those mountains! 😮 #ParkChat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2: I love them. We pack up the car & go. I love that we aren't bound by flights and we can go wherever we choose. We love adventure. #parkchat
replying to @loveGoldenHeart @loveGoldenHeart @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute It's a great driving park for sure! #parkchat
replying to @mjn126 @mjn126 @t_jh2009 This. You stole my answer, lol. Worst part - finding yourself in dire need of a hotel and everything is booked. #ParkChat
replying to @loveGoldenHeart @loveGoldenHeart @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute Oh yesss #ParkChat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2) I fear the abomination of self-driving cars as I actually like to drive and I am not a fan of flying. So, to me it's a beautiful way to see my country on my terms. and my mutt gets to come! #ParkChat
A2: I like roadtrips because you get to see a variety of locales and not just one place. The biggest downside is often the amount of time spent in a car. #ParkChat
RT @t_jh2009: Q2) What appeals to you most about a road trip? What is the least appealing about them? #ParkChat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute A1) #Parkchat most memorable was when I was 12 to @ArchesNPS from Aspen Colorado, I had been to @RockyNPS and @YellowstoneNPS when I was younger but I was just then, old enough to appreciate the freedom I had there, basically was the foundation for my love for National Parks.
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute A1: Actually, driving through Joshua Tree was quite a lovely park to drive through. It turned out to be more than what we thought it was. #ParkChat @59NationalParks @GalsWander
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2: I love seeing America at ground level. But the time it takes getting to a destination can be daunting. #ParkChat

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute A1. Traveling to 4 Utah NPs plus Yellowstone and Grand Teton in 7 days and over 2,000 miles of driving #parkchat
replying to @tthrash @tthrash @t_jh2009 @59NationalParks @Wild_Tribute Awesome road trip! Way cool. I might be doing a portion of that for a new guidebook in 2019. #parkchat
#ParkChat A1 Man, too many great roadtrips to choose from! My fav way of seeing parks. My 7-week long roadtrip through the national parks in the Northeast was pretty amazing, but I think I'll go with the first BIG national park roadtrip I took back in 2007 https://t.co/EvXVHdyC7s

replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2 Seeing a lot of country and new places in a single trip is great, the downside is the large amount of driving through boring places between the interesting bits that is so often necessary to reach your destination(s) #ParkChat
replying to @t_jh2009 @t_jh2009 A2: appealing: seeing the country from an angle I can control and go wherever the road leads. Unappealing: Long, badly maintained roads. #ParkChat
