Blessed Relief

Without the haze you can see the East Bay hills.

I've walked, biked, and jogged along the Belmont Slough since the 1980's.

Although much of the original 1960 Foster City Master Plan has not been realized (where's the high school? where's the heliport?), the city has largely adhered to the principle of preserving open space.

The provision of open space is intended to offer residents and visitors opportunities for quiet introspection in a location that provides visual relief from buildings, concrete and noise associated with urban life.

The quaint language of nearly 60 years ago also provides blessed relief from the noisy puffery associated with nearly every green program today.
