Shutdown impacting forthcoming travel

[Terrie]

So I am supposed to go to DC at the start of February. Currently on a countdown to deciding if I will cancel it. 1) I was supposed to go to the Smithsonian. That was 80% of my plans/goal. One of the biggest non-Federal attractions, the Spy Musuem, is closed as well, for renovations. 2) Even if there were things to do, I don't want to deal with the uncertainty of flying right now. Slow security lines, terminals closed for lack of security staff, etc. 

Obviously, in terms of impact, it's pretty minor. But it still bums me out. I may take a staycation, do some local things I don't normally do. Or maybe I'll get lucky and the shutdown will end before that and I can go. Think positive, right?
