Around town pics

I like to take pictures, as you have probably noticed by now. One of my interests is local history. Some of these pics are just for fun; I know just looking at them in 10, 20 or even 50 years will be amazing. In a way, I like to record people and places.

I'd like to take more pictures of stuff before it gets torn down. The spanish house below on Springer road in Los Altos was scraped recently, and it *was* an eyesore, but I sort of imagine what it looked like 80 years ago when the road on the right side of the house was obviously an entrance to an orchard, and the house in the pic was the ranch house, and all the houses now on that street were non existant and there were cherry trees everywhere. It's weird in a cool sort of way.

I apologize for the poor quality of the pics.
