Thank you! I was quite thrilled that I finally got to go there. I'll bet it was really fun to be there when you were a kid! You were there before it became a National Park.

I was gonna say, “I’m not that old,” but I guess I was :-D

You are not old at all! It just didn't become a park until in the 90s sometime.

You’re correct. About the National Park designation, that is. I found that surprising.

I have a vague memory of that happening. The park had always been on my radar screen as a place that I really hoped I'd be able to visit someday so I must have been paying attention when they mentioned the name of the park.
