Junior Ranger patches

[Photograph by me. Click for a much larger view.]

As seen at the Thomas Edison National Historical Park, West Orange, New Jersey. The people and programs of the National Park Service are, of course, targets of the current administration. Last night the PBS NewsHour looked at what’s happening: “How the National Parks Service is struggling with drastic funding and staffing cuts.”

I think this photograph must be the largest I’ve posted. Click through: it’s worth it.

[Yes, that’s Edison as man and boy in the bottom corners.]

If you find yourself on I-80 on your way to or from New Jersey, stop off at Milan, Ohio. It's just a few miles south of the highway. There you can visit Edison's boyhood home.
