Shutdown

The shutdown, that shows no sign of ending any time soon, does have an indirect impact on me.  I was thinking about going for a hike on a trail that is on federal land (part of the National Wildlife Refuge System) over the weekend – but now I don’t even know whether it will be open.  It probably is, but the website is no longer getting updated and because it is a lot of effort to get to (I would have to take the ferry) I just don’t know whether it is work risking.  I might choose to go to a state park instead.  Thanks President Trump - you petulant baby.
