Last night, while waiting for Quiz Master Ken to grade the Streets of London Pub Quiz answer sheets, Stickie and I were chatting with Lisa and Todd.
I asked what final things they feel like they need to do before leaving town, and Lisa asked, “Oh, like our Sacramento Bucket List?” She referenced yet another breakfast at Tower Cafe and outing to The Trap, and they’d recently gone rafting on one of our region’s raging waterways. I suggested throwing out the first pitch at a Rivercats game or spending the night at Sutter’s Fort.
What would be on your Sacramento Bucket List? Beating The Bee at pub quiz? Hitting every single gallery on Second Saturday? Riding the log ride at the State Fair with Poppy? Breakfast at the Market Club?

A pitcher and a pie at Zelda’s Pizza. Then off to either the Swiss Buda or Freeport Bar and Grill for Karaoke.
Or a drive through the Sacramento Delta with my Nikon.

Bike or walk the American River Trail from midtown to the terminus at Folsom. Or the other way around.

Stickie: Just join me next year for this event. It’s one that I’ve done a few times now, and you could cross that off of your list:

Sounds fun. Also sounds painful.

Lunch at the Sunflower Drive-In. Shopping for music at The Beat and Dimple. Dinner at Todo Un Poco. Coffee and some music at Lunas. Then maybe a second dinner at 524 on Northgate.

Dinner at Chilies/Applebees/Chevys, and then a movie at the new 200 seat AMC MegaPlex. After: drive the small beige SUV to the beige Elk Grove neighborhood, and try to pick out my beige house from the other 43 beige houses with identical beige garage doors, green lawns, and classy light green PG&E/Comcast post located in the middle of my postage stamp of grass (irrigated at all times). Pull into the garage (avoiding the neighbors), turn on the 42 inch flatscreen, crank the air, and watch a little American Idol on Comcast’s new Digital service. Ah! Another perfect evening, the kind you can only get in Sacramento. Or Elk Grove. Or maybe Roseville. But nowhere else.

There’s nothing like playing a packed Firehouse lot during the Jubilee. I wouldn’t mind doing that again before I shuffle off the mortal coil.
