The Russians Were Coming!

This little advernture has already proved to be quite interesting. Unfortunately the first day of real shooting was very hazy. I'm pretty sure I am going to be getting many of those days since this is the central valley. I already have a collection of photos that I've taken around town but I'll post those as I run out of current shots.

Fallout Shelters! Yes even Fresno has them around. Now the mission has become to find their location and to take pictures of them. Im sure they now have been cleared out and probably house old file cabinets but it would be cool to check them out. 

First picture is one Olive in the entry to the CHP/CAL Trans office and the second is on the intersection of Fulton and Fresno. I've also read that there are alert sirens throughout town. Not sure if they are still operational. 

Cool signs. I'll try to post more stunning imagery as we go. These were just cool signs.

As I go through life I begin to appreciate the history of what has led us or myself to this point where we are now. A lot has happened before me and you who is reading this. Of course we all want to make some sort of difference in the world or leave something behind that people will remember us for when we are gone. Of course we are not the first to feel this way... Many people have made a difference in our community or have left relics behind that have probably been looked over or forgotten with time. We'll I've decided to look for these things via my camera and write about them. I hope to find some cool things throughout my town of Fresno and hopefully shed some light on them so that they can be appreciated.

Lets see how this goes . . .
