Exploring America one park at a time.
Welcome to Parking Full Time! I'm Big Dave the Parker. Parking Full Time is my personal faith-based UA-cam and blogging project. The goal is to display the glory of God's creation by exploring America 1 park at a time. I mostly post video about my hikes, but occasionally I also post a Bible study and prayer time video: the God who created this world is the same God who sent His Son to save this world. Come join me as we go parking full time.

Cant wait!
I really like the video coming out tomorrow. It might be my favorite hike out of the 20+ I did on the California trip.
Good walk through the woods:) We like your written comments on the screen...as always.
I'm glad you like the "editorial comments." I've been trying to do more of that lately. It's another way for me to interact with the audience. :)
Very nice calm trail. Who knew the Rio Grande ran dry?! That was quite a surprise to see 😮
I was surprised too! But the Rio Grande in New Mexico is a desert river, so it's flow fluctuates widely based on season and rainfall. I later learned the dryness was fairly common for that time of year. Thanks for watching and commenting!

Would you say that area is more green/lush by March 31/April 1? Or looks pretty similar to the video?
And do you have any videos from around that time of year in CLT? Thanks!!
It depends on the year, but I captured this video on March 7, so I would say pretty similar. Spring typically springs in the Charlotte area in early April. Thanks for watching!
If you consider Clemson, SC close enough to Charlotte (the climate is about the same), check out my video from Clemson Experimental Forest, which I released 2 weeks ago. I captured that video in early April when the flowering trees were in bloom. Very pretty time of year if you can tolerate the pollen.
@@davidpragerhiking Thanks!

Such a simple nice hike
I did this hike at the start of a long driving day, and I really enjoyed it. Super flat, super easy, but lots of birds. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@ yeah ofc man love the content
Great video! It's good to be back watching your channel again! Mom broke her hip on Christmas Eve...it's been a bit of a rough go. Slump block. New word of the day!
Slump block: a large piece of rock that broke off from the main cliff line and slid down to its current position. It's great to hear from you again! I'll pray for your mom. Happy belated New Year!
@@davidpragerhiking Thank you so much for praying! And Happy New Year!

I love this trail. In early Spring the area is covered in wildflowers. It is beautiful! At one time there was a booklet provided at the trailhead that pointed out various highlights along the trail such as the morteros (grinding holes) used by the Serrano hundreds of years before the Morman settlers came through. The area is steeped in history.
Glad you liked it! This is a beautiful area. I didn't see any booklets at the trailhead, but there is a firehouse. I had to be careful where I parked so that I didn't get in the way of the firefighters. Thanks for watching!

Happy New Year! I can’t wait to see all of the Indiana hikes as I am close enough to try to get to them all. Thank you for sharing your hikes and scripture with us.
Happy New Year! Indiana doesn't have many state parks, but the state parks it does have are (mostly) fantastic. Thanks for watching!

Very nice hike
Glad you liked it! This was one of my favorite hikes from my hiking trip to southern California back in February.
I grew up hearing President Nixon talk about San Clemente so it was nice to get a visual.
Glad you liked it! I enjoy any hike that ends with a beach walk. Thanks for watching and commenting!
What an exciting place to be. You never know what you're going to see...or hear! My husband said he heard a red bellied woodpecker on this video:)
Glad you liked it! This preserve is a green oasis in very developed suburban Charlotte, so you see a lot of birds here. I have a special video coming out on Christmas Eve about the 4 Charlotte/Mecklenburg County nature preserves. I like all 4 of them, including this one.

Wonderful lesson as usual. God is so faithful!
Glad you liked it, and merry Christmas!
@davidpragerhiking Merry Christmas to you too!!
Glad you chose not to do a voice over because of the wind. You were right about those waves. Love that sound! And anyway...I for one love hearing very loud wind in your videos:)
I love a hike that ends at a beach! I did 3 such hikes when I was out in southern California, and they were all very good. Thanks for watching, and merry Christmas!

Very nice little short hike
Yes, it's only about 1 mile long, but the bluffs and beach are gorgeous! Thanks for watching and commenting!
It's amazing how much work was put into making those rock lined trails. Love them!
Yes, the trails are very well-constructed at this park. I really enjoyed my hike here.
Such a beautiful panoramic views man, another great video!
Glad you liked it! This is a nice hike with some nice desert views.
I love Knoxville so much
I have family who live near Knoxville. It's a nice part of the world with some great hiking nearby.

Nice editing man seems like a pretty good hike
Thanks! I really enjoyed this hike, but the wind wreaked havoc with the audio. Hence, this is a Tuesday release.
@ ah that wind will always get ya lol
Very nice:)
Glad you liked it! I really enjoyed the old cypress trees growing in that creek.

Cool seeing a little piece of a homestead in a state park. And you sure chose a beautiful spot to film the lake!
I really enjoyed this hike; it's one of my 4 favorite hikes in metro Atlanta. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Very nice combination of history with hiking.
Glad you liked it! This is one of my favorite hikes in metro Atlanta.

I always feel tired to read the Bible
You might try an audio Bible. I find reading my Bible that way helps my mind focus on the text rather than wander.
I am interested in the Bible study
Glad you find it interesting. Thanks for watching!
What a cool bird/squirrel blind! How unusual to have one of those at a state park! I like the way you kept the camera on the birds til the very end:) Oh and if we don't see a video on Tuesday...HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
Glad you liked it! I decided to do the outro at the bird blind; I figured watching the birds and squirrels would be more fun than watching the trail. And there is a video coming out Wednesday. Have a great Thanksgiving, and Lord bless.
Cool squirrel and bird blind! Thanks for sharing!
I actually met the guy who built and stocks that bird blind on my way out. He talked about the lengths he goes to to keep the squirrels out...all of which fail of course. :) Take care and have a great Thanksgiving!
What a nice area and 60° sounds wonderful right now. Thanks for sharing your adventures.
Glad you liked it, and thanks for watching and commenting!

Lovely hike, your content is always so diverse and nicely executed!
Glad you liked it! This is a small park but a nice park with lots to see.
Looking forward to Friday!
So am I! We're getting into the videos from my big California/desert southwest road trip now. There are a lot of interesting parks to see out that way. Take care, and thanks for watching!
Can’t wait to see the Friday adventure.
It's a small but nice park coming on Friday with a lot of interesting things to see. Thanks for watching!
Cool place! Made me think of the balancing rock at one of the entrances of Garden of Gods in Colorado Springs, Colorado. If that rock ever snapped off its pedestal it would literally block the entrance of the park, since the entry is just a single car width lane. Have a good one!
Glad you enjoyed it. I've been to Garden of the Gods twice, most recently in 2020. Very scenic and interesting place. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Absolutely wonderful video! It really made us feel like we were out in the middle of nowhere. Sooo nice:) And good to know that we just saw the only natural waterfall on the South Carolina coast (I read your previous comment). Here's a question...are all trail markers to the right?
I really enjoyed this park, and it's only 30 minutes from Columbia. You really have to watch for the trail markers here due to all of the unofficial trails, but they're not all to the right. They nail the metal discs to whatever good trees they can find along the trail.
Beautiful and atmospheric hike my friend! Love it
Glad you liked it! I think this is a very nice park with lots of interesting things to see.
Neat place. I had no idea that part of SC had waterfalls. Great video.
I really enjoyed this hike, and there's a lot to see in this small park. That waterfall is the only naturally occurring waterfall in the SC coastal plains. Thanks for watching and commenting!
