Here is a quote from a lady who works at a NWR in Minnesota... I thought she displayed a good attitude, even though she is on furlough"As most of you already know, national wildlife refuges are closed to visitors during the government shut down. This includes hiking trails and wildlife drives, as well as hunting, fishing, and all forms of recreation. The good news is, the birds don't know and don't care. And the lands and waters are still available for them to use, even if this is not the case for us." Claudia Giamati Chippewa Falls(mailing address) Chippewa County "A knowledge of the path cannot be substituted for putting one foot in front of the other." -- M. C.
