Questionable spending
The current Congress has been unable to agree on solutions to many of the nation's most pressing problems, but federal agencies nonetheless have found time to approve nearly $200,000 to study worm-digested compost and more than $800,000 to train mountain lions to walk on treadmills. CBS News correspondent Nancy Cordes has more examples of what some might call egregious government waste.

Hi there. I am making a Fall Foliage drive of the Northeast from Oct 14 - 21. I will be starting/ending in Stamford, CT. My question is whether the foliage will still be nice in the White Mountains during those dates or will it be past peak? Ideally, I would like to wind my way up through the Hudson Valley --> Berkshires --> White Mountains --> Home. I could do the trip in reverse too. However, if the leaves are past peak then I will skip the White Mountains and explore more in Mass/Hudson Valley. Thanks so much!! Jen :-)
