I'm lots of things but city slicker isn't one of them. Unfortunately I was 
thinking about the Buffalo National River which (hopefully I'm not wrong 
again) is under the National Park Service, Dept. of Interior. Didn't think 
about about National Forests being different. And when it comes to the 
gubmint, I'm definitely not willing to pay.

City Slicker ... Harrumph!
