The National Parks: America’s Best Idea……

By Ken Burns – It has nothing to do with Kevin Costner except that I’m sure that Kevin supports our National Parks! I am excited to see this series and I believe our National Parks are very important for America and I believe the more we all know about them the better we can protect them so I hope all who read this will watch and tell all your friends and family to watch!
