We gathered at Henry Coe State Park yesterday to show our support for California State Parks. 
Two television news crews reported on the scene. What I have to say is that these lands are a public trust run by the state government. They are not an asset that can be closed or sold off. The $15 vehicle license fee is a fine way to offset the costs and if other compromises are needed so be it. But closing 80% of the parks is neither a reasonable nor effective solution to anything and would be a huge violation of public trust.
Our mission of taking a photo for the SOS Weekend campaign complete, we set off hiking to see some sights, soothe our souls and get a little exercise.

Wow, Great effort you guys, Parks are the public places and way of pleasure for the public, I think these places should be protected for the coming generation.
