Beautiful sunny days are here and people are beginning to tuck away boots, coats and umbrellas until the next rainy and cold season. They are pulling out sandals, shorts and thinking about how to enjoy the sunshine.

I went to the streets of Sacramento and asked people, “Where is the best public place to sunbathe?”

Here is what folks had to say:

Britanny Heines, 18, an employee at AT&T and Denis Myrick, 19, a student at Cosumnes River College are both from Galt.

“We like to go to Mokelumne river to sunbathe,” Myrick said. “It is beautiful,” Heines added.

“We go to Ski beach, I think that is what it’s called. It is off of Garden high way. It is behind Chevy’s – They have sand, too,” Petteway said.

Alex Fines, 22, a student at Cosumnes River College and Johnny Danner, 23, a student at Sacramento City College and underground rapper, are both from South Sacramento area.
