The Decade Challenge

There’s been a lot of side by side comparison of people from the beginning of the 2010’s, and the now start of the 2020’s. I don’t have pictures, but, I do have a story.

Living in South San Jose is pretty great, for the most part. Great house, mostly great neighbors, and amazing weather are all positives. But the negatives come out twice a year.

There are always fireworks here...
