- · Yellowstone National Park is really significant to me because when I was around twelve years old my cousin started going on vacation there and he’d send us post cards through the mail with different animals on it. My sisters and I use to always fight over who had the best post card. We would always wait for him to get back and when he did he’d always have stuffed animals, shirts and he even got my mom a shot glass once. I haven’t really got to see much of yellow stone after I was fourteen because he ended up over dosing, but I have always said that I was going to go there so I could see what he once seen.
