Dear Josh:

As we wrap up final details for HRC's visit to Sacramento, I thought I would reach out to you quickly on media.

This is a HUGE deal for Sacramento. Every news outlet will be out in front of the venue gate, and the evening news will be full of images of her motorcade coming in and out of our family's large home.

This could be a great opportunity for a Sacramento 'Chipotle' moment, but probably better if its a cafe. There are several cafe's between the airport and the house, and she could stop in and pick up a coffee. Of course, I'm happy to be with her - this is my home town too, and I'm the ONLY US Ambassador ever appointed from Sacramento (at least, as reported by the Sacramento Bee during my confirmation).

Also, and this is a bit more complicated, the motorcade will pass over the American River. The river is quite low due to the drought. It could also be interesting to pull over at one of the viewing points (again, on the way to or from the venue), to see the river.

All best, and thank you for your consideration.

Eleni
