Weekday DATES

We've decided to spend Wednesdays as our DATE DAY to explore local museums, etc and eat lunch out. Yesterday we managed to make it to Frei's Fruit Market which just opened in Santa Clara and got some luscious apricots, limes, and tomatoes. They are just barely opened but are part of the history of Santa Clara which we discovered in the City Hall Museum-free and interesting. Then it was time for Mexican food for lunch. Weekends are too busy for restaurants so we'll go midweek and avoid some traffic.

They are a little more expensive but better fresher fruit

So much history in this area, starting with Father Escalante

Early Indian missionaries to this area included Jacob Hamblin
and his companion Ira Hatch-a family relative-it wasn't easy.

Santa Clara was originally full of orchards and vineyards.
