Middle America Starts Here
I went with some friends to see fireworks in the little town of San Ramon, about 30 minutes east and south of Oakland. It's like another world over there. It's so white. It's so suburban. Miles of SUVs and minivans. It's so Norman Rockwell white picket fence America. And it's just 30 minutes from Oakland and San Francisco. Not there's anything wrong with that. Just an observation.
