Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is with great pleasure that I announce the soon-to-be, greatly-anticipated, brand-spanking-new website for 47parks. My journey to every national park in the country was finished in June of 2017, yet the adventure continues. I am officially rebranding as The Park Pilgrim, and I look forward to chronicling my explorations locally, nationally, and abroad.

A great big shout-out to my sister-in-law, Lisa, for expertly putting this together. If you need someone to create a website, she’s your gal! 🙂

A couple things to note:

• My new url will be theparkpilgrim.com, and 47parks.com will redirect you here
• If you are a WordPress or email follower, you should still get an email notification when I post
• The new website will make it easier for readers to find relevant posts that touch on interesting and helpful ideas:
  • 47 Parks:
    This is where it all began – an epic road trip to visit all 47 national parks in the contiguous United States within the span of 47 weeks. [Spoiler alert: I did it.] Read about my travels around the country, living in a MyPod trailer and experiencing the nation’s greatest treasures.
  • Spaces & Places:
    Visiting all of America’s national parks was just the beginning! My exploration of natural spaces and wild places continues as my journey expands to areas around the world. Read about my travels near and far and the nature-based wonders I discover.
  • Thoughts & Things:
    Gear reviews, poetry, food tips, philosophical ramblings, and much more! This miscellany section showcases the inner-workings of a nature enthusiast’s mind.
  • Education:
    Follow my journey towards becoming an expert in school-based outdoor learning. Read about my own personal experiences exploring nature during Muddy Mondays and learn about some relevant literature on getting kids outdoors!

I can’t wait to continue seeing the world together… one outdoor space at a time!
