Businesses Founded During a Recession
During recessions, starting a new business is typically not considered a smart idea due to tight budgets and lack of capital. However, some iconic companies were founded during recessions when there was little competition, including Allstate Insurance (1931), Microsoft (1975), and General Electric (1873). These entrepreneurs took risks by starting companies during economic downturns but saw opportunities when others did not. Their businesses thrived and became industry leaders by creating new products and services.

- 1. Check Out These National Parks in 2019 ROBERT SIEKERT robertsiekert.net
- 2. National parks and reserves are an integral aspect of intelligent use of natural resources. It is the course of wisdom to set aside an ample portion of our natural resources as national parks and reserves, thus ensuring that future generations may know the majesty of the earth as we know it today. J O H N F . K E N N E D Y robertsiekert.net
- 3. Introduction There is nothing like getting in touch with nature; when you simply log off and put your devices down to release stress and take in the gorgeous scenery. Did you know that there are 60 national parks in the United States? Each one has its own unique qualities and history, with plenty of activities from backpacking to spelunking. Although the popular parks include Yosemite National Park, Yellowstone National Park, Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Grand Canyon National Park, here are some other national gems to explore: robertsiekert.net
- 4. Olympic National Park Located south of Seattle (WA), this gorgeous park is known for hiking and backpacking. The park began as Olympic Forest Reserve in 1897 and grew to become Olympic National Park in 1937. In 1976, the park was designated as International Biosphere Reserve in the Man and the Biosphere Program by UNESCO. There are a number of trails based on skill, from experienced (Mount Ellinor Trail) to beginners (Sol Duc Falls Nature Trail). If you don’t want to camp out, there are lodges, chalets and resorts in the park that offer restaurants, gift shops, pools and more. robertsiekert.net
- 5. Rocky Mountain National Park You’ll find over 350 miles of hiking trails, 70 mammals and 300 species of birds in this majestic park just outside of Estes Park (CO). Enjoy fishing, mountain climbing, and horseback riding among the beautiful peaks, glaciers and lakes. It was established in 1915 and offers a wide range of wildlife, plants and trees. robertsiekert.net
- 6. Congaree National Park This 22,000-acre park located in South Carolina is part of the Congaree Biosphere Reserve.

- 7. Everglades National Park It’s actually a wetland preserve that spans 1.5 million acres in southern Florida. This isn’t your typical national park with mountains or gorges.

Known for being home to endangered species, such as the Florida panther, leatherback turtle, the American crocodile, this tropical wilderness offers tours, educational programs and dark sky sites. robertsiekert.net
- 8. Valley Forge National Park Although this park is more about history, there is still plenty to do, such as tours, bike riding and hiking. This sprawling 3,500 acre park northwest of Philadelphia (PA) features meadows, monuments, trails and historical structures. When you visit, you’ll get a true sense of what camping was like for George Washington and the Continental Army during the winter of 1777-1778. robertsiekert.net
