This wasn’t just any movie for us. It was the first time for both my boys to […]

Apparently this is already a thing, because most of the groups camping at Natural Bridge State Resort Park were dads camping with their kids.

(A friend had told us the surrounding parking areas were few and far between, and filled up by parade time. Then you need to park at a farther […]
