31 Days of Fresno: September 2010

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html

Wednesday, September 22, 2010. I've spent my entire life. To give a damn about Fresno. Yes, Hanson. I've followed them for the last 13 years, enduring the nonstop jokes (13 years of "That middle one is a hot girl" is an exercise in patience) and even worse, the ad-lib lyrics to Mmmbop that people think are so clever. I'd long abandoned the notion that maybe they'd fall in love with me ( me! Or tell me their favorite Steve Martin movie. So I have to say a big big big thank you to the band Motel Drive.

Saturday, April 24, 2010. The Ultimate Fresno Bucket List. In order to be a complete, true 100% well rounded Fresnan, what does it take? What experiences are absolutely essential?

Thursday, July 8, 2010. 31 Days- Summer Edition: Day 8- Old Town Clovis Farmer's Market. I've blogged about produce profusely. I love me some veggies, what can I say? But I do want to take a few moments to point out that Fridays in the Summertime are one of my favorite times because they mix produce and play at the Old Town Clovis. There is live music. Interested in running into an old acquaintance or two? We were few but proud.). Labels: 31 days of Fresno: Summer Edition. Old Town Clovis Farmers Market.

31 Days of Fresno: Thoughts on Travel.

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2010/09/thoughts-on-travel.html

Wednesday, September 15, 2010. I spent the weekend in Chico. NOtown Roller Derby. Sent a team to go bout against Norcal Roller Girls. And well, it's Northern California. My expectations were high. But then, while wandering around the town, I couldn't help but think to myself "Man, I love Fresno.". That may be partially why I was really missing Fresno, even if I was just there overnight. My BFFF. And better half Guinness Wrecker. And it's true. I felt not-eco/health conscious-enough, despite my TOMS.

31 Days of Fresno: December 2009

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

Wednesday, December 30, 2009. This is the Tailgate Party! 31 Days of Fresno is starting on Friday, but I'm having a hard time waiting. I thought I'd do a little backstory before I jump in with all of the Fresno lovin'. A few friends even called me Fresnaw as a nickname. We've got problems, but we've also got heart. Okay, its late and the cold meds I've taken are definitely starting to kick in, so before I go all apeshitcarebears on everyone about how Fresno is the happiest place on Earth, I probably shou...

31 Days of Fresno: July has gotten the best of me...

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2010/07/july-has-gotten-best-of-me.html

Monday, July 19, 2010. July has gotten the best of me. Clearly the middle of the year is a more difficult time for a blog-a-thon than the fresh new beginning, oh I had such enthusiasm to start July off, and my list was so complete. I'll be working on catching up, but boy-howdy have things been busy. I guess the best way to prove my point that there is no excuse for boredom in Fresno is to live the busy Fresno lifestyle, right? To find their way out into the blogosphere eventually! 31 Days of Fresno.

31 Days of Fresno: June 2010

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html

Monday, June 28, 2010. Another 31 Days Ahead. It is almost July. By now, you're feeling the Fresnan's conundrum. You love it, but it. is. just. so. dang. hot. It becomes a passive, lazy kind of love. You want to shout it from the roof tops, but dear God, there just is no shade there. It's easy to blog about how fabulous our city is when I have a hot mocha in front of me and am enjoying the fact that I don't have to actually bundle up in January, but not as easy to be witty with heatstroke and sunburn.

31 Days of Fresno: 31 Days- Summer Edition: Day 6- KJWL

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2010/07/31-days-summer-edition-day-6-kjwl.html

Tuesday, July 6, 2010. 31 Days- Summer Edition: Day 6- KJWL. Okay, so it may not be as cool with my generation as the time I posted about The Evening Eclectic. On KFSR, but I can't fight this feeling anymore. KJWL 99.3 is freakin' awesome. Every month and give the featured artists and musicians air time, which I think is pretty awesome. (Also awesome is the GIGANTIC mural of Frank Sinatra by their back entrance.). They have community oriented segments throughout the day like Eye on Education. NO ONE....

31 Days of Fresno: 31 Days- Summer Edition: Day 7- Meux Home

http://31daysoffresno.blogspot.com/2010/07/31-days-summer-edition-day-7-meux-home.html

Wednesday, July 7, 2010. 31 Days- Summer Edition: Day 7- Meux Home. Is a subtle reminder that Downtown is where Fresno really became Fresno. It stands out on the corner of Tulare and R, a Victorian home that just oozes class and elegance. And it's a museum. And a wedding venue. And a part of our story as Fresnans. It filled my mind with the big ole dresses and corsets and awesome hair and hats and gloves and covered ankles. I had never thought about our community as being one of those kinds of places...
