If they close the National Parks

I wonder, didn't we go through this some years back? I don't ever remember the parks closing.

Yes we did. I remember it well. Lake Mead was closed for several weeks. The lake finally opened back up on January 17th. I usually went jet skiing every week, so not having gone for several weeks I went jet skiing the day the lake opened back up. The temperature was in the 30s. It was COLD. But I wasn't not going to go jet skiing. All three television stations were out doing a report on the lake opening back up. And, since I was the only fool on the lake, I was featured on all three stations. When I came into the dock so they could interview me one of the cameramen leaned down to help me tie up my jet ski and he dropped the camera in the water. I didn't have on a wet suit, only a nylon jogging suit, but since I had on a swimming suit, I had to dive down and retrieve it. Needless to say, I was done boating for the rest of the day.
