Sparkles of light dance on the surface of a distant see but wait, this is no ocean, this is Fresno California. A jewel of lights on California's Big Valley. It was a perfect blend of light, fog, haze and a distant sunset that glimmered over the distant coastal foothills. This is Fresno as seen from high above in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains and it shimmers and moves as the lights twinkle in the hazy lights of the city below.
