Broadway Plaza, Walnut Creek
Go! Calendars – Games – Toys, which opened in September in Broadway Plaza in Walnut Creek will be closing within the next couple of weeks. Right now everything is 50% off. Note the difference between this sign and this “up to 50% off” sign for the Sports Authority store closing sale earlier this year.

I want to wish everyone a very merry Christmas and happy Hanukkah as well (since it falls on the same day). Have fun!

When I got out of my car at the Target parking lot in Walnut Creek and saw flyers on the windshield of cars I thought surely this must be scofflaws advertising a nail salon or some service but interestingly, it was the Walnut Creek police themselves who posted “Don’t be Easy Prey” flyers warning not to leave handbags in cars that are visible to protect against break-ins. This is sound advice, I always make sure to put bags in the trunk out of view when leaving my car.


With Christmas and Hanukkah coming up very soon, I wonder what people’s favorite holidays are. My favorite holiday is Independence Day on July 4th. I love a fireworks show on a warm summer night. Thanksgiving is up there as well. What is your favorite holiday?
