so there's this little hole under the ground in fresno california.  forrestrieri underground gardens on w. shaw?   don't blink when you drive by or you'll surely miss it.  poor signage with worse visability.  having said that, it is soo worth a stop inside.  evidently, back in the early 1900's this somewhat eccentric gentleman decided fresno was just too flipping hot, and he started spending more and more time in his underground root cellar.  he decided to enlarge the root cellar a little bit every week or so.  he continued doing so for the next 40+ years.  the result is a 10,00 sf  little tourist trap known as fresno's underground gardens.  for a small admission price,  you too can experience this wonder and positive ingenuity.   tell andre i said hello
