3 years ago a friend let me in on a little secret. This secret has changed the way we explore when we travel, and it’s educational! The National Park Service lets you earn Junior Ranger Gear at most of their locations, you just have to ask! I have fond memories of earning the Wisconsin Explorer patches during our annual family vacations, so this sounded like fun to me.
There is no doubt that a field trip or vacation to St. Augustine, Florida will be full of history. As the oldest city in the US, it has a rich history. We have visited 3 times and still enjoy returning and finding new hidden places to explore.
a last minute stop to the Fort Donelson Visitor Center in Dover, TN. We traveled from Nashville to get there and Google’s direct route was rather scenic.
We had 2 goals when we set out to visit Dayton Ohio: First was to visit my cousins who live there, and second was to earn some Junior Ranger badges (duh!). Dayton, Ohio is the birthplace of aviation.
