Yesterday, on 12 March 2023, my parents and I went to several parks in San Ramon, CA. We went to Forest Home Farms Historic Park and saw a lot of antiques. We also visited Memorial Park and Hidden Valley Park. We wanted to go see yellow mustard flowers, but they don't seem to have bloomed yet. I took photos with my cellphones. I hope you enjoy viewing the photos.
Our first stop was Forest Home Farms Historic Park in San Ramon, CA. The address of the park is at 19953 San Ramon Valley Blvd, San Ramon, CA 94583. I already went twice on week days and the Tractor Museum was closed. It was open on the weekend, so I went in to check out the vintage equipment they have housed in there as well.

After Forest Home Farms Historic Park, my parents and I went to 4 other spots I have scouted out where you might be able to see yellow mustard flower blooms. Unfortunately, I think we were too early. We barely saw any. The next 2 photos were taken at Memorial Park and Hidden Valley Park.

While on the subject of antiques and vintage equipment, look what I found in the attic! These 3 floppy disks 💾 are from my childhood.
I had such a great time taking a trip down memory lane, because recently I got a Dell USB floppy disk drive, so I can read the information out of these things again. 😂 I haven't had a floppy drive on my computer since my old computer broke in 2016 and I replaced it. That was really fun. Yes, I am a bit of a computer geek. 🤓 You can see that I strategically placed 2 of the floppy disks with the label side down. One of those floppy disks contains Pokémon pictures I found on Google when I was a child. 😁 Too embarrassing to show. 😆
This is all the photos for today. I hope you have enjoyed viewing the photos! Please don't forget to share the blog post with your friends and family members!
