Triton Museum Of Art at 1505 Warburton Ave in Santa Clara is our favorite local art museum. Our favorite exhitbition is when they have the glass show where all the local glass artistis come and sell their glass creations. Their most famous item is their pumpkin festival where they sell thousands of glass pumpkins. It is lots of fun to go to every year even if you end up not buying any pumpkins. Which will not happen.

Club Sport is the biggest gym in the area. It's got everything and anything you could ask for under its wide roof. The place always looks new and clean and the staff are all fitness buffs. The first thing you see when you walk in is the reception desk where they swipe your card or sign up guests. The are nice enough to give guest passes periodically to their members who want to bring along friends that do not have a membership. The things I like best at this location are the high quality baskeball court, the numerous tennis courts, and the outdoor pool. Recreational activity lessons are given on the upper floor.

when you walk into a snowboard store, you expect to be greeted by a young, "slacker" guy that says "dude" a lot n' also calls you "brah" for brother. when i was in grad school, i wouldn't have minded working for a snowboard store. after all, i've been snowboarding for a long, long time and do it very, very often. i've spent time keeping up on new products. i've tried out different products. i'm into freestyle, freeride, and downhill boarding; in other words, a variety of riding. however, i don't talk like that, thus i don't think, even though i'm a responsible guy, good with mechanical things, that stores would really jump to hire me. they'd think i'm nerdy, but i'm not.
anyway, my favourite place to by snowboarding equipment is tri-city in fremont. however, some people not in the know are slow to believe that a "general sports" store would have the best deals on snowboarding equipment. some people think you must go to a specialty snowsports store. you don't _need_ to. at tri-city and other general sports store, though, they also try to hire the young, "slackers" that say "dude" all the time. it's funny, when i went to wintersport warehouse to pick up some free lift tickets, i was talking to the dude that was the kind of dude that says "dude" a lot, and i realized that 1) i was more knowledgable about snowboards than he, 2) i had more experience snowboarding than he, and 3) i had spent more time on the slopes that season than he. yet, i'm sure they're prefer to hire the dude that says "dude" a lot than me. you know? anyway, i'm satisfied with working my job as a mechanical engineer and just riding snowboards and tuning mine and my friends on my spare time instead of doing everyone's boards.
so what do i think of wintersport warehouse? it's ok. it's what i expect of a snowboard store. i'll buy a few things there, now and then. however, when i need to make major purchases, i'll go to tri-city. after tri-city, the place i most often buy snowboarding equipment is probably any mountain. however, i don't necessarily like it much. honestly, i'd prefer to patronize the small stores that remind me of the skateboard stores i used to hang out at. after all, i'll buy snowboarding equipment from go skate if the price and availability is right.

We have been members at Planet Granite for over a year and have really enjoyed it. The gym has a wide variety of levels (5.7-5.12+) with the majority of climbs at the 5.10/11 level. I love climbing there. The staff is super friendly and always helpful. Evenings can be busy, but you can almost always find another climb to try.
I highly recommend it!

This is a great recreational place for adults and for kids. I saw a bunch of families last time I was there. A group of my friends and I decided to go back and shoot some hoops for old times sake. It was the perfect way to spend a lazy afternoon getting in shape and rehashing the good ol' days. The YMCA had a list of available activities by the front receptionist desk. If you have any questions, the staff and volunteers are more than eager to lend you a helping hand in getting involved. Get off your sofa and go for it!

The name is misleading. There is not a mansion anywhere in sight on the property unless you try to count the rental office lobby, but that is stretching it. I would have given a higher rating if maybe I had written this review when I first saw the place. First impression was excellent. The grounds are safe, well manicured, well kept, and there are walkways everywhere for pleasant night strolls. But, after a few months, the complex has looked dumpier and chaotic due to the haphazard noisy construction. Black tarps, fallen woodpiles, and unrooted muddy hills are everywhere. Rather noisy, too.
