We enjoy living here (and there are about 110 houses for sale, so come on down..).. but Claremont still has its little things that make it well, Claremont. You can only slam on Claremont if you actually live here, of course, too. Well, we live here. So here is our ode to Claremont Christmas, where despite a couple feet of snow, you can still find oodles of Crocs for sale, but few nice snow boots.
