🌅 Good morning, RootBadger. Wednesday starts with a warning about the federal debt path and a timely way to plan an autumn outing.
🗞️ Reuters morning read: The United States cannot rely on economic growth alone to shrink its mounting public debt, IMF Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said Wednesday. Speaking at the IMF–World Bank meetings in Bangkok, she said growth helps but cannot deliver the needed adjustment quickly enough, so fiscal measures will also be necessary. U.S. debt is now above $40 trillion.

🍂 Useful this morning: If a fall-color drive or walk is on your list, the National Park Service's leaf-peeping guide is a useful starting point. It links to parks with forests and changing foliage, but conditions and timing vary widely from September into December. Pick a park, then check that park's current conditions, alerts, hours, and road or trail closures before leaving.
