Most of the Rangers are glorified security guards with way too much power. It's a summer job for them so, with the beaches closed, it's a piece of cake.
Hey JohnnyD, guess what? Just in time for the July 4th vacation weekend, the Park Service has closed the entire Head of the Meadow parking lot to "protect a pair of freshly hatched chicks." So now, you don't even have the parking lot!


Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
