FLYP CHAIR – FRESNO ‘FAVE FIVE’


After I published my Fresno ‘Fave Five’ I received a lot of feedback saying that I missed some of the best parts of Fresno. Due to my oversight – I have allowed some guest bloggers to provide you with their ‘Fave Five’.

The first guest is Jenn Blair- and her ‘Fave Five’ are:

  1. People- I love how Fresno is such a closely knit community and everyone is very friendly and honest. There is a great sense of doing what is right for our Valley.
  2. Parks and Lakes- I love the outdoors and enjoy being so close to so many beautiful natural resources such as Yosemite, Millerton, Shaver, and Bass Lakes.Yosemite
  3. Entrepreneurialism- Fresno is the leader in food and water technology. It’s pretty cool to say that we feed the majority of the US with our agriculture.
  4. Big City Things- Fresno is the 4th largest city in Fresno and has so many cool things to do. Whether you are into getting a good bite to eat, rooting on our local Grizzly baseball team in downtown Fresno, or visiting a cool museum, Fresno has it all.
  5. Traffic- There is none! I grew up in Southern California and I dread visiting because of the traffic. You can get from North Fresno to South Fresno in 10 minutes.

Oh…and if you were wondering who Jenn Blair is – Here you go:
