We're always looking for things to do in Fremont and this was a great find! The actors were great and the skits were very funny; we're still laughing over some of the lines days later. This was a great night out at a very reasonable price. We're going back and will bring a group of friends next time.

We used to come to Ardenwood (from San Jose) at least once or twice a year when our kids were young. When they started high school, they simply were too busy, so we've not been in many years. Today we decided to go for the Harvest Festival and I am glad we did. Even without little kids, it was a fun day. We managed to pick some corn, although by Sunday afternoon almost all the corn had been picked, and we walked around and looked at the farm, the historic house and the pumpkin patch across from the farm. Small kids, especially, will have a great time on the train, running around the farm area and looking at the farm animals. Check the schedule for special events.

California Historical Landmark No. 334. Mission San Jose was founded on June 11, 1797 by Father Fermin Francisco de Lasuen. This was the 14th of twenty-one Spanish missions established in Alta California. A tour through Old Mission San Jose’s historic facilities includes the Mission Museum, the Church, the historic Cemetery, and the Garden. In the Museum, an 18-minute video depicts Spanish exploration and the 1797 founding of the mission as well as day-to-day living within the mission. See Ohlone Indian artifacts, religious objects from the Franciscan period, and items from the Mission and Rancho eras. The Church is a reconstruction of the 1830s mission adobe church, built with the materials and using construction methods of that time. It also contains the rare Rosales Opus 14 Spanish Organ. The cemetery holds the graves of many prominent Spanish and American settlers, and the rose garden includes a fountain and plantings representing the original mission period.

We drove again across Dumbarton Bridge. This is a nice bridge connecting the Peninsula (East Palo Alto) to the East Bay (Fremont). There are nice views of the San Francisco Bay as one drives across. There is a toll if one drives east to west. There is no toll if one drives west to east.

Great place to hike. It will get you up to Mission Peak. Takes you to the Ohlone College Trail. Very easy. Used to ride my bike up there. Cool creek along the road. Yours truly Mike Ornelas aka Mr. Fremont.
