I run the Around Fremont community on Livejournal.com, and I wanted to try a Fremont-based blog as well. I really like living in the Fremont area and won’t apologize for being a big fan of its many cultures, excellent international cuisine, beautiful parks, thriving farmers’ markets, and interesting people. The surrounding communities, including Newark, Union City, Milpitas, Sunol, etc., have a lot to offer, as well. I know many Fremont oldtimers don’t like twenty-first-century Fremont, but I love it, and any criticism I may offer here comes from wanting to make it a better place to live for all of us. (Either that, or it’s been a bad day and I haven’t had my coffee yet.)
This blog is under development and may change design, focus, or policies at any moment. I can tell you right now, though, that although comments are currently open, I reserve the right to moderate them, particularly in case of racism, etc. I hope that won’t come up, though!
Today has been quite a day in Fremont–a rare mid-October storm (the remnants of a typhoon), which brought down a tree in my apartment complex, followed by an earthquake centered a couple miles from Sunol! (Don’t forget to fill out “Did You Feel It?”) What a day to get started on…
