Am blessed to have a national park right across the street from where I live. So the wife and I decided to take the dog for a walk in the woods and along the river. Lo and behold, there is a barricade on the entrance and they put large rocks across the access road. Sign says closed due to government shutdown. No problem, we walked around them and proceeded to have the entire place to ourselves. Most weekends it is too crowded to take our dog so this was a rare treat. I am liking this so called shutdown......I say so called because only 17% of federal employees have been furloughed. The other 83% are apparently trying to inflict as much pain on the American people as possible.
