Sacramento Manic Monday: Hurricane Sandy Relief

Various crews from Sacramento have been on the east coast helping with the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Here is a combo of Sacramento and Stockton paramedics who arrived in New York two Saturdays ago to help with the relief effort. Local PG&E crew members will also be there this week helping restore power for businesses and residents. I know a young woman from Elk Grove whose husband will be part of that crew. It's truly amazing to see just how many different lives something like this can touch - in so many various ways! Please give or help in any way you can for these poor people on the east coast hit by this natural disaster.

A Little Late

I know I'm a little late with these, but here are some Halloween costumes I thought were cute. Maybe you can use them as inspiration for your outfit next year!?!

Vince and Kelly

This is the epitome of a good country music love song. The melody is great, Vince's guitar playing is so smooth, and Kelly's voice is flawless. I love this duet!!
 

I Heart NYC

My heart goes out to everyone in New York, New Jersey, and all the other areas on the east coast that got hit by Hurricane Sandy. Although I've never been there, I have dreamed of going to New York since I was a kid. There's just something about that city that seems to draw so many people to it; even those who have never seen it in person. It is a city that can steal a little piece of your heart without you having to even be there. I can only imagine what it's like in real life! So, for all of those who are there and do call it home, I wish you well in the days ahead. May God speed and bring peace, safety, and order to NYC and the rest of the east coasters hit by the hurricane.
