I completely agree. The US national and the various park services are one of the best things in the USA. I'm dismayed by how much of a political football their funding can be, and I always make an extra money donation over the entry price. Everyone who I have ever come across working in a park or for a park service has been very welcoming and they are often very easy to get around and pleasant to visit. I have a lot of respect for all park service people.
