Yellowstone National Park was the first Nat Park in the world.

I saw that on a TV special.

I want to go there someday!!

Arches Nat'l Park (here in Utah) has over 2,000 limestone arches!

How come I only live a few hours away, and I've only ever been there once when the kids were young?

Don't know ... you'll have to ask someone who's been on a road trip with her, I guess.

Henry Ford was a proponent of hiring the handicapped. In 1919, more than 20% of his workforce had some form of disability.

A group of rattlesnakes is called a rhumba!

Hope I never see one, lol!

Thanks for the site Twink. I haven't been reading this site lately but clicked on 'yours' & found it interesting.
When I read that some tribe in Kenya thinks "10" is bad luck & doesn't use it when counting, I thought of us & 13. Most hotels don't even have a 13th floor. After the 12th floor is the 14th floor.
