This was supposed to be a National Parks tour on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the parks. We decided to start in Acadia (Maine) and then move to the next closest park. Acadia was really great and we stayed 5 days.
I should have taken a closer look at the map. We have under a week left and we are not close to another park. Time to move to plan B. We now are going to spend a couple days in the Poconos and then we will head home.
I have a theory based on the history of Acadia. I think the interesting land in the east was purchased by rich folks. They decided to give Acadia to the government to protect it. Many generational, multimillion dollar homes surround the park. Land in the west did not receive the same attention. Just look at the map - my theory seems an obvious conclusion.
