Final Question: None

Final Thoughts:
Before getting into today's shows did you know Good Day Sacramento anchor and Manly Minute founder Ken Rudolph doubles
as a musician? Yes it's true, you can now download their debut album on iTunes by going to https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/pressure/id687559967 or search The Tipsy Hustlers "Pressure" $.99 per song or the entire album for
$9.99.
Now onto Today:
Today's shows were pretty much dominated by the Bay Bridge closure & ways to get around the Bay Area. I found it interesting
how the stations covered & for me I felt Good Day Sacramento had the best coverage. Tina traveled throughout the city in Mobile13 while Sean was there at the action of the bridge & at the beginning Kristin was at the touch screen before going to her own traffic incident having to postpone her Museum report. They also had Melissa at Amtrak to start the day. I felt like My58 did a job
well done as well with Mae at Amtrak. Not a fan of Brian Hickey who was at the bridge. Fox did okay but felt bored. Maybe I was just over the coverage at this point but that's my opinion.
Good Day Sacramento did do a lot of consignment shopping with Melissa & Ju did her DIY Thrifty Thursday on fashion.
Until tomorrow enjoy the rest of the day.
