Happy Birthday #NPS! Today marks the National Park Service's 100th anniversary. Since the beginning, the NPS and supporting organization the National Park Foundation have strived to protect and preserve all of the country's national parks. For this occasion, the NPS encourages everyone to visit the 400-plus national parks, and for those of us in New England, the closest is Acadia, pictured here, in Maine. | 📷: @lizbonnaci #NPS100 #FindYourPark #Acadia #goEast
