Save Our State Parks
If you live in California, I urge you to take action to help keep our state parks open. The Governator has a brilliant money-saving plan that includes closing nearly all of our state parks. The SF Chronicle story gives more info than I can fit here. But the proposed closings include all but 5 Bay Area parks. Big Sur would close. As would Mt. Tam and Angel Island. And every state beach. Every one.

The California State Parks Foundation has an online petition you can sign, as well as additional information about how you can get involved in the fight to keep our local treasures alive. For those of you on Facebook, please search for California State Parks and join their fan club for news updates and more details.

Done done donated and done.

I wish those jerk offs would find a reasonable way to balance the budget. Some way that doesn't involve closing schools and parks and opening jails.

*sigh*
