Parks, the War to End all Wars, & the Great Depression
    We all live downstream of a rapids

Parks are America’s Best Idea, the crowning achievement of North America’s History; they join scenic rivers, national marine monuments, battlefields and wilderness refuges with protections that fulfil our need for Beauty (the top of Maslow’s Pyramid). The West has changed in one generation, Parks created by altruism, reflection and reactions to wars, and enhanced to perfection during the Great Depression, are now at the bottom, not top, supporting the Pyramid. The World’s future is about Land Use; it is a history lesson unfolding as you begin to learn its cause.
