On Saturday, January 29th, join us to walk from the Main Library, 300 Estudillo Ave., to downtown San Leandro BART to discuss the historic markers, landmarks and other tidbits along the way."

  • Nextdoor Neighbor, Ashland: "Bring your pets in at night! - I just saw a YouTube of a dog barking in its backyard. The owners never got up to see what was going on. You see a big mountain lion jump the fence and carry the poor dog away in its mouth." (Nextdoor)
