sac'to redux

So, Sacramento was oddly beautiful. As California's capitol, it has more of a "business-y" feel to it and they sort of redid their "old town" area to look like a Wild West theme park, which is sort of weird. But it feels more old-timey and has more brick buildings than SF it seems. I was only there for one night (Sheraton, see below) but I had a fun time by myself wandering around and then buying one of those movie-on-demand things from the TV in my hotel room. Alas, it was "Marie Antoinette" which, although rather ambient, was quite a bit of fluff. I kept getting distracted by other things and falling asleep several times. Too bad Kirsten Dunst's head didn't get chopped off in the end--they didn't get that far along the historical train.

old-timey old downtown

there are OAK trees in Sac'to--very rare in San Francisco...


the delta is always beautiful...farmland surrounds Sac'to.


there are magic sparkles coming out of my camera!

I used to live in Sacto - I really miss the trees trees trees trees. Not so many here in the bay.
