Get the introduction! WOW!
"An often-overlooked part of Los Angeles located in eastern part of the county, The San Gabriel Valley is actually larger than its San Fernando counterpart at 284.13 square miles. Most people just don’t know that much about it."
Pardon my French ... but what the hell? The article was written by Clarissa Wei, and she speaks about the San Gabriel Valley as if it's Mars. Most folks who live in "other" parts of L.A. are well-aware that being a "Westsider" or "Valley-ite" can sometimes become almost a cult status, but this is ridiculous. Am I detecting a bit of a snob problem, Ms Wei?
I am just kidding around here, but on the serious side, how can you live anywhere in L.A. and be ignorant of the San Gabriel Valley? That opening sentence struck me as very strange. I have no idea which "most people" Ms. Wei spends her time with, but I will say they're apparently a bit insular and and a very ill-informed crowd.
All that said ... here's the article, and it's got some great suggestions of stuff to do in the SGV.
Until then ... see you at the Drive-In!
