800,000 Federal government employees have been "furloughed"...such an odd military word for being locked out of your job, without pay, for an indefinite period of time! Of course the elected officials who locked you out and severed your pay will continue to be paid(approx. $670/day) while they play games with each other.
Fortunately we visited all of the National and Smithsonian sites during the past week. Today we will head to Alexandria. Maybe we will find some shopping opportunities because it seems that the only shops in DC are in the museums which offer a very pricey selection. This city has a vast assortment of pubs, eateries and cafes but very few shops.
