Redwood National Park, CA: Paul Bunyan's resume reads similar to a Chuck Norris biography: It took three storks to deliver Paul Bunyan.  Paul Bunyan dug the Grand Canyon...by dragging is axe on the ground behind him.  Paul Bunyan created Mt. Hood...after stacking rocks on top of each other to put out a camp fire.  Don't let anyone tell you Paul Bunyan isn't real.  Drop by the upper reaches of the Northern California coast to pay him a visit!

Olympic National Park, WA: Keep your eyes peeled as you walk down the beaches of Olympic National Park.   Positioned delicately amongst the sea rocks are Jenga-tower-like man-made structures as beautiful as they are peaceful.

 Athens, Greece: Referred by soccer enthusiasts as one of the most memorable achievements in the history of the sport, in 2004 the Greek national team defeated Portugal 1-0 to be crowned UEFA European Champions.  Greece entered the tournament with 150-1 odds of winning, which made for monumental victory celebrations across the country.

Bird? Bear? Wolf?

Skagway, AK: Native American art like this can be found around nearly every corner of Alaska.  Many pieces are designed to represent animals, seasons, and stories familiar to the Alaskan landscape.  Bear, Raven, Otter, Eagle, or Wolf...which animal do you think this is?  The answer may be difficult to find unless you find a way up North to find out for yourself!
