So what caught my attention was

Stop 1: Out of Time - U.S. Parks would close, drying up tourist cash flow

Stop 2: What exactly is gonna happen with the government shut down?

Stop 6: http://www.elfrethsalley.org/visiting

$5 for a tour.  I can swing that. And it's easy to get to with train/subway. I’m going to stop here.
