Get out! National parks to hold fee-free week. Begins on Saturday.

http://www.cnn.com/2010/TRAVEL/04/15/national.park.week/index.html?hpt=T2

The National Park Service is waiving entrance fees at all of its 392 parks for a week starting Saturday as part of its annual National Park Week celebration.

So you won't have to open your wallet to visit such popular places as Yellowstone, Bryce Canyon or Yosemite.

3. Cuyahoga Valley National Park
Really not deserving of national park status, Bush made that one, it was a NRA before.
