time to get off the computer and go to a PARK

This week on PBS, Ken Burns' The National Parks: America's Best Idea is causing quite a fervor on the airwaves. Spectacular stuff.

For those who can't get enough, also just out on the news stand is the latest National Geographic magazine, which features the awesome photo I've posted here and without a doubt, the usual fascinating NG article.
The photo is from this blurb on NPR.

P.S. An (unrelated to this NG photo/article) aside: One of the best days out in my entire life was spent hiking with family and friends at Pinnacles National Monument (and yes, we've returned there for more visits).
