With apologies to the Maryland Park Service no-alcohol policy, I completed the first six-pack at 9 a.m. at Fort Frederick State Park.
The first clue is the toughest, Questers.
Ranger Brett Hendershot unlocked things a little early so I could get started.
Fort Frederick is just one mile from I-70, a real easy-off, easy-on stop. Think Sandy Point without the Chesapeake Bay.
A film crew working on a movie about African-American soldiers at the Battle of the Bulge will be here this weekend. Seems the stands of old pine trees look a lot like the ones in Belgium.
Who knew?
On to Cunningham Falls State Park, the site where Park Quest 24/7 was hatched on Memorial Day weekend.
