Back in 2014, I started my adventure of collecting cancellation stamps from National Parks. My grandparents had taken a family trip with me to Yellowstone and that’s where I learned about the passport and purchased my first little blue passport book. A couple of years later I realized that I needed the big book and upgraded. Ever since that trip I have been traveling and collecting parks as I can. What makes me laugh is that Yellowstone is the world's first national park by an act of Congress and signed into law on March 1, 1872, by President Ulysses S. Grant.

Since that day I have a bucket list item to visit all 50 states and go to at least one national park. Below is a list of all the states I have completed and the stamps I have collected.
