255: Phone a (Dead) Friend. Thomas Edison National Historical Park.

National Park After Dark

A universal desire to have just five more minutes to convey our love to those who we have lost has been in existence for as long as humans have. For most of time, those wishing to connect with the deceased relied on mediums, until two of history’s most brilliant minds added science to the equation in hopes of inventing a diret line to the other side.
We love our National Parks and we know you do too but when you're out there, remember to enjoy the view but watch your back.
