Summary edit

Description

Looking north from Civic Center along Glendora Avenue, which is the historical shopping area that still is home to mom-and-pop stores.

I am paying a visit to Glendora, located along the old Route 66 at the eastern edge of San Gabriel Valley, during its Earth Day festival.

While San Gabriel Valley as a whole has gone through growth and demographic changes over the years, Glendora has retained the feel of San Gabriel Valley of yore; its population is smaller, its historic town core remains vibrant, and it is also a rare San Gabriel Valley city that remains majority white.

My favorite singer-songwriter Anna Nalick grew up here in Glendora. And part of my Glendora visit is to soak up the same influences and vibes that had inspired Anna's songwriting. Following the vibes that have inspired my favorite musicians will now be a new twist to my future travels; in fact my Glendora visit is sort of a practice run for my visit to Huntington, Long Island, New York, just over a week later - where my longtime idol Mariah Carey grew up.
