Parks closing in PA

Just had this sent to me and thought I would pass along.
Apparently the State of PA is planning on closing many national parks I guess due to budget shortfalls.

Yeah, its not just parks... its also monuments and museums and historical sites... its also public radio funding...
I could seriously sit and cry, but I've been writing emails and letters and I sure hope that makes a difference.

Really? Here in Philadelphia I actually think there're some museums going up.. though I'd be sad that they're closing many of the parks.. I wanted to take up hiking this summer.. :(
