Happy Labor Day!

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

I just wanted to wish everyone a safe and happy Labor Day! Sadly, I am writing this from work–per usual–and I can’t be out enjoying the beautiful sunshine with everyone else because life (well mostly just my boss) is not fair. Anyway, go and do something for me down at the Sacramento River. Hop on a boat, get in some fishing, or just enjoy the gorgeous weather we’re having today. Make it worthwhile since I can’t =(

About Sacramento, CA

When Sacramento was founded in 1849, I don't think anyone bothered to notice that it means "Holy Sacrament" in Spanish. After all, it wasn't a very apt name for a lively, growing mining town where gambling and saloons where the status quo. Perhaps to gain a modicum of respect, they paid California $1 million in 1854 in order to become the State Capitol. In the years since, it has evolved from a little mining town into a bustling city full of people from every culture and every walk of life. In addition, our status as the most ethically diverse city in America also means that we have something for everyone to do. There are numerous ethnic restaurants, tons of museums, and countess festivals in historic Old Sacramento that make the city an excellent place to visit and an even better place to live...
