After what has surely been a long summer (The Fresno Fair opened up to triple digits!) it has finally cooled off in our beloved valley. Jeans, sweatshirts, Café Corazon coffee in the early morning while wrapped in the quilt my grandmother made when I was just a kid. I love everything about the fall season except going places in the fog. As a result I find myself on my computer reading local blogs a lot more regularly than normal. Over the years I have put together what I feel is the must list for local internet readings, today I’m sharing with you a handful of my favorites & notables. So before the fog burns off, grab your favorite blanket, get to reading LOCAL 🙂
