Grandmother and grandson Joy and Brad Ryan from Ohio are on a quest to visit every US national park. Their adventure began a few years ago when Brad realised his grandmother had never seen a mountain.So off they went to see the Smokey Mountains on the border of North Carolina and Tennessee.  That began a quest to visit every site in the US with national park in its name. Now aged 92, Joy and grandson Brad have almost completed the mission. You can follow their journey on instragram @grandmajoysroadtrip.
