It has been a privilege the past few days to risk my life driving around Fresno in the kind of fog I grew up with.
It’s part of living here?
A skill.
All the life advice I see has some version of “Do what scares you! That’s how you grow!”
Well, we are all full-grown mother fuckers in Fresno.
We skillfully drive through fog.
Don’t bat an eye when we hear a gunshot.
Work ourselves to the bone.
Get kicked around by everyone in California who lives outside the Valley.
We do plenty of scary things. Things someone from The Bay or LA, would balk at.
Really I am just stopping by to say I have enjoyed all the bonding the fog has been giving us.
You know what they say “Telling people you’re from Fresno is both a bond and a threat.”
Thanks for reading. Hope you’re doing ok.
