After months of meaning to go, Amytha and I finally made it to History San Jose today, a park filled with 27 original and replica homes, businesses and landmarks, which highlights periods of Santa Clara Valley’s past. Only three of the buildings were open, and the place had a bit of a ghost town feel, but it was definitely interesting and I’d like to go back on a day with more people.

Amytha actually spent the summer archiving the collection of documents from the organization that raised the money to restore the Temple shown here, so she knew all about the history of the place.
