The Yolo County Breakdown for Aug. 28, 2026

Fri, 08/28/2026 - 10:00am | Rocky Outcrop

Dolly Parton was a legend. Her passing this week means the world lost one of its brightest lights. She was smart, funny, sassy, and one of the greatest entertainers the world has ever known. This week's installment of the Yolo County Breakdown celebrates her enormous contributions by presenting her music and letting her singing, songwriting, and pure heart shine a light for all of us to see. We will always love you, Dolly!
