Sacramento became a city through the efforts of John Sutter, a Swiss immigrant,

of Sutter's Fort, which was established by Sutter in 1839. During the California

In this state you are never very far from the coast and there are lots of seaside

resorts. Thanks to the nearby the Pacific Ocean and warm climate, some people

can spend time swimming and lying in the sun on the beach. Lots of people go in

for surfing, sailing and water skiing there. Because there are the high Cordillera

Mountains, some other people go climbing and mountaineering. Fresh grapefruits,

oranges, lemons, melons and peaches are not imported. Low-cost, high-quality

fruits, juices and vegetables are available any time of the year due to the fact that

the southern parts of the country have warm temperatures all the year round;
