Maybe from the hinterland, all of California appears a vast vacationland of surf and sand and bright lights and glitterati, but if you live in one of the places that's on the travel posters (like surfer dude Jim), Sacramento is the sticks — a cow town of tumbleweeds, a dusty no place where you stop for gas on the way to Tahoe.
From the beginning, this was just somewhere people stopped on their way to where they were really going (175 years ago it was the gold fields, today it's Tahoe).
About the kindest thing anyone has ever said about Sacramento is that there's plenty of convenient parking here..
Do you mean to tell me all the Kalifornia guys don't meet down at the surf shack for shrimp tacos after work (at say, 3:15 or so)?
Again, I'm going to need a bit to process that.
