While I kind of agree you sound a bit crabby about the whole National Park idea and I agree you wife would probably have a better time if she went alone as nothing worse than a traveling companion who doesn't enjoy the trip and spends the whole time complaining, - - saying that, you just can't believe that all National Parks are alike. We've been to dozens, and found that there is usually a reason for them to be National Parks; scenery is like no other, historical interest is like no other, or wildlife is like no other. Places like Yellowstone and Yosemite are crowded in the summer but there are some wonderful Nationals Parks that are practically empty if you go off season. If you want to see some of the most beautiful mountains in the world, come visit our (WA State) North Cascades National Park, or on the other side of the country is the Dry Tortugas in Florida, Great Basin in Nevada, Big Bend in Texas. Your wife is right, they are there to be seen +
