    Mysterious Rock Walls

    November 10, 2021 /

    East Bay Mysterious Rock Walls are also known as the Berkeley Mystery Walls. These crude, stone walls are located in the San Francisco Bay Area in California. In places, they are up to a meter high and a meter wide; the walls run in sections anywhere from a few meters to over a half mile long.

    Park and History Museum Plans

    I’m not counting the “collection” in our garage, no I’m not! As some of you know, we homeschooled our son. So I’m going to talk about our favorite “field trips” in the area. I’m going to focus on museums for children and the young at heart. Plans for Milpitas History Museum Milpitas is the only large city in Santa Clara County without a museum. Locating a museum next door to the Milpitas Public Library and Municipal Parking Garage is ideal and must be preserved.
