A chance meeting. A spontaneous getaway.

A love story written across the landscapes of America.

When two middle-aged divorcees connect online, their first impulsive trip together lands them—unexpectedly—at a national park. What begins as a whimsical escape soon sparks a shared passion for adventure and a heartfelt mission: to visit all 63 national parks in the United States.

 Over the course of 15 years, their journey unfolds through breathtaking vistas and life’s most profound moments—blending families, battling cancer, finding love again, getting engaged, married, and a near tragedy before embarking on one final, unforgettable trip.

Part travelogue, part love story, this memoir captures the beauty of second chances and the healing power of nature, one park at a time.
