National Park Sites - My Trip to Dry Tortugas National Park
There are over 400 National Park sites across America and it's territories. These sites are found all over America. They include National parks, forts,battle sites, graves,and homes of famous Americans to name a few. Each of these places has stories to share. My visit to Dry Tortugas National Park in Florida is an experience that can be visited in person or through the NPS.gov website. My video shows the beauty as well as the rich history of this park. I also tell 3 distinct stories of the different groups of people who have come in one way or another to this unique place. National Park sites truly show that our country is truly a melting pot of cultures.- Bruce Wilson
