Re: Picture of your car at a national park.
I wish, I was in 4 national parks this August:
Badlands Rushmore/Blackhills Yellowstone Grand Tetons but I had the family and was using my Dads minivan.. so no vette one of my favorite signs: this one is not bad for a phone camera:

Re: Picture of your car at a national park.
Took a great trip through the SouthWest this spring, 2100 miles on a rental car (Las Vegas to ABQ):
Zion Glen Canyon Antelope Canyon Grand Canyon Meteor Crater Petrified Forest/Painted Desert Sandia Peak Bandolier Carlsbad White Sands and a host of smaller sights in between. Tremendous amount to see out there and seems like a different planet from the great north woods. Compared to New England, where you can hit 5 states in an hour if you work at it, everything out there is 1/2 day drive apart. If I had to pick only one it'd be Yellowstone, caught that a few years ago. Would have been a lot more fun in a C4 but too many people, - Jeff

Re: Picture of your car at a national park.
Back when I took this I suggested we urge members who live near our national heritage and monuments to do the same. Not much follow through. I'd live to see a Z up front of the statue of liberty, freedom tower, stone mountain, el capitan, washington monument, bunker hill, lincoln monument, jefferson monument, the arch in St. Louis, the alamo, old faithful, grand canyon, little big horn, Mt St Helens etc many more
I'll work on getting one of Mt St Helens. So far this is the only one I have on the list but it's one of the grandest we have:

Re: Picture of your car at a national park.
Scottfab, awesome picture! I live about 90 min from the arch, but it is really hard to get a good perspective picture of that thing! Too much urban jungle in the way.
Jeff, I took the same trip in June. I was blown away by Yellowstone (first time there), and then stunned by the beauty of the Tetons!
