No Parking In The Park

Deadlocked negotiations on Capitol Hill are enough to stop traffic in Valley Forge.

The gates are closed, the locks are on, and the signs are up all over Valley Forge National Historical Park..

About 47 VFNHP employees are being temporarily furloughed as Senate Democrats and the President refuse to consider House Bills to fund everything in the federal budget except Obamacare.

During the stand-off in Washington bike and hiking trails as well as park attractions, and bathrooms will be locked off in Valley Forge and national parks across the country.

What do you think? Does it make any difference to you that the park is closed?

 Do you think one party is to blame or do you hold all elected politicians in Washington to blame?
