Sacramento

Sacramento, California
For 28 years I have lived in Sacramento. The Capital is less than 5 miles from my current home, as the crow flies. Funny how something is in your own backyard, and you never see it clearly until you are seeing it thru someone else's eyes. Yesterday was that day, though I have been many times, for many different events including fond memories of being a "Field Trip Mom", it struck me how truly beautiful this building and and the grounds it sit upon are. Today's newspaper had quite a large article on how in debt California is, and how State Workers will be considered for lay-offs.
This is such a sad time, such a beautiful building, so many things broken inside...
