I don’t know about you, but summertime gets me in the mood to travel even more than usual. I just want to pack up the car, drive to the mountains, and spend time outdoors–especially since I live in Colorado where there are 4 National Parks! 

My hubby and I have each visited a bunch of National Parks, but we haven’t visited any together yet. So I thought it would be fun to get started this summer! Below is a complete list of the 63 National Parks organized by state. (New parks are STILL being added to the list, so this is a moving target if you hope to visit them all!)
