The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission cares for Washington’s most treasured lands, waters, and historic places. State parks connect all Washingtonians to their diverse natural and cultural heritage and provide memorable recreational and educational experiences that enhance their lives.
- A first-time visitor to Paradise Point State Park might wonder why a place so close to the roar of a busy interstate highway was chosen to be one of Washington’s “cherished places.” It is important to remember that this landscape has a story that runs much longer and deeper than the concrete ribbon of Interstate 5.
- Mid-Atlantic (United States) (Wikipedia)
The Mid-Atlantic is a region of the United States located in the overlap between the Northeastern and Southeastern states of the United States. The region typically includes five states, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland, and the national capital of Washington, D.C.. Virginia and West Virginia are sometimes included in definitions of the region’s geography. The region has its origin in 18th century, and its states were each among the Thirteen Colonies of pre-revolutionary British America.
