A few years earlier I was on my way early one morning from Pensacola to go to Horseshoe Bend National Battlefield -- another national park I would visit. But, a vehicle passed me that morning in my rental car and kicked up a piece of gravel that cracked my windshield. Thus, I spent the rest of the morning getting that repaired and had to miss Horseshoe Bend. This trip was to get back there. Seems I have had to revisit various places around the country over the years for various reasons. Here was another one.

The park itself was just a battlefield with little to see. But, it is my 207th national park.

Another nearby national park was one I only recently "discovered" -- Little River Canyon. It was worth a short visit and became national park #208 for me.
