Our oldest son, Remiel, wants to visit every national park in the country.  We’re off to a good start having gone to Rocky Mountain, Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Arches, Zion, Bryce Canyon, Grand Canyon, and Petrified Forest National Parks.  All of those were visited on an epic one-month road trip in the summer of 2012.  Since then, we’ve also visited Great Smoky Mountain and Shenandoah National Parks, and the Chickamauga and Shiloh National Battlefields.  During our last Thanksgiving break, we decided to take a day trip down to Russell Cave National Monument.  It’s not too far from our home in Lynchburg, sitting on the Alabama side of the Alabama-Tennessee border near Bridgeport, AL.
