Well, if you're an old fart like me, you can get a card which gets you in 
free any time. Around here, however, about the only thing that means is free 
parking in the White Mts. Nat'l. Forest. (Closest National Park is 6 hours 
from here).

Well, there's a certain irony here in this being National Parks Week. 
Admission to all the parks is free all week. However, because of the 
now-6000-acre forest fire, much of Skyline Drive and many hiking trails in 
the south section are closed. And in the central section many trails are 
closed because of an ongoing search for a young woman who has been missing 
since Friday. Her car was found in the park, and there's no indication of 
foul play, but the car was in a fairly rugged area. She was alone, and my 
fear is that she fell somewhere.

Mooching around on the Web trying to decide what to do tomorrow I discovered 
that this is National Parks Week with free admission at all National Parks. 
Here I am relatively close to Yellowstone and I have always been intrigued 
by Old Faithful.  It will probably be a long day, particularly if I arrive 
just after the start of a two hor gap between eruptions, but surely I need 
to do this once.
