Some picketing pics from Riverside in So Cal, where a work friend & I went last Thursday. Probably the majority of coverage was in Sacramento, because that's the capitol, but there was picketing all over the state.

I've worked for the state for nearly 30 years, and this is the 1st time it's come to this - although the pay gap has been an issue since I started.

The program cover for the final NASCAR Winston Cup race at Riverside International Raceway in 1988. The iconic road course in Riverside, California fell victim to a combination of encroaching residential developments, noise complaints, and rising property value. Following a season of racing on a truncated version of the track, Riverside would close for good in 1989.

A shopping mall was built on the former site of the track, opening in 1992 and still occupying the location today. The final track building was demolished in 2005 to make way for townhouses. Today, nothing remains of Riverside other than memorabilia and memories.

The cars of Terry Labonte (#11), Dave Marcis (#71), and Richard Petty (#43) feature on the cover. Labonte would finish runner-up to Rusty Wallace in the race, Petty would come home in 6th, and Marcis ended the day one lap down in 21st.
