““nobody is as bad as Washington D.C.”

I really cant say I agree with that. Spend some time in China.

The problem is not Washington DC, its the politicians we have sent there,”

China does not rule Montana, nor will they rule Montana even if they happen to acquire the title to some land there. They will instead be forced to follow the same laws and pay the same taxes and anyone and everyone else in Montana.

Washington D.C. is the only party that does not.
That is the issue here, as far as land titles go nobody is worse than Washington D.C.

I recently re-visited Zion after 30 years. The differences in vegetation within & without the park were one of the differences I noted, along with the actual meaning of the Park's name (apparently Zion wasn't named after the Bible by the early settlers as we originally learned; the name of Zion only meant that of a nature preserve), the shuttle buses, and a few others things, namely that the trails which we breezed up as 20 year-olds were now quite a bit harder !

We had to forego the Angel's Landing trail, which had so enchanted us on our honeymoon 30 years before, completely. It's straight up ! I didn't remember that as being very hard, back in the day.
