Scenes you’ll see only in Fremont

By Geeky Swedes · September 28th, 2008 · 7 Comments

A few photos from our walk around Fremont today.

Some folks out strolling with their pet goats at the Fremont Fair.

A seven-foot tall pile of rocks along 36th Ave. near Phinney, likely created by Benny “the rock balancer,” who has created such structures for years.

Yep, they’re precariously stacked, so don’t touch!

    I’m really curious about those rock stacks- I see them all the time, and often with incense stuck in them. It’s quite… curious.

    Now let’s see a seven-foot tall stack of pet goats with incense stuck into them. Now THAT would impress me.
