If you are just casually looking around like we were it would take you maybe 30-45min to see it all taking your time. If you are an aviation buff and read all the history and look at all the cool items they have there in detail then you could be there much longer. They also have someone there who really knows about the stuff who can be your tour guide and answer any questions you may have. He was busy with some other people so we just walked around ourselves. Very cool!

The docent from the museum (Vernon) provided an outstanding tour and showed us many things that I probably would have missed, as well as the very interesting back-story that made the visit and experience much richer. My personal favorite was the helicopter car. I was also very impressed with the replica of the Wright brothers first flight plane and wind tunnel. I have visited the Wright brothers museum in Kill Devil Hills, NC and this replica is on par with the display at the Wright Brothers National Memorial. If you have any interest in airplanes and gliders, be sure to spend some time checking out this wonderful museum.

I knew in advance that on Thursdays (2nd & 4th weeks only), the public street parking in front of the building was off limits for street sweeping/no parking between 7am-11am, so I got very lucky pulling up in front at 11am sharp. Nice. Easy walk. The Foster Museum was very simple, decent, positive, and relaxing environment filled with gorgeous nature views/sketches/watercolor artworks by the U.K. artist, Tony Foster. Good feeling here. Free admissions and good customer service staffs. You can just walk in or register online. There's a tiny gift area not far from the public restrooms. I signed the guestbook at the end of my walk. Good place to hang around/includes unlimited paper, paper/pencils/samples/etc. If you like to sketch and get some creative inspirations, all the nature artworks in the gallery is definitely a good place to start. Not huge, but perfectly quite and calm for art lovers. You can request for an orientation and/or tour as desired. Great first impression during first visit. It's the positive feeling I get from observing the energy and various colorful artworks. Simple and stress-free. Good value/free admissions is totally worth the 1-2 hours here. They also host art classes too, but I will need to take time to browse around online. Good vibes. Staffs are friendly inside. Hidden place. Love it.

The volunteers welcomed the kids and encouraged them to take part in the bean bag toss, throwing horseshoes, the sack races, pumping water the old fashioned way, riding tractors, milking fake cows, going for a real hay ride and more. The children not only enjoyed every minute and couldn't stop talking about it on the way home. It was a nice reminder of how simple times use to be and how we don't need fancy thing-a-ma-jiggers for entertainment. Sometimes simplicity can be the most fun. If you have little ones, this is a must do. I think that they called the event Second Saturday. Check it out and add it to your "must do" list. Just make sure to pack a little cash to make a donation to keep this exhibit going.

I appreciate the seasonal feel that so many restaurants lack In our local area. Today I ordered what feels like the most basic thing on the menu, a breakfast burrito with extra meat. It is delicious. Crispy bacon, creamy avocado and a tortilla that is the same texture as my abuelo would prepare. There is many gluten free and fusion cuisine options too. There was a spring green pork noodle something that caught my eye but my heart was set on caffeine and breakfast. I didn't spend any time looking at there beer, wine or mocktail options due to the time of day. The music is chill and there is a gentle breeze coming in from the open door on this perfect spring morning. Outside of the picture, there is people quietly reading/working on laptops or just stopping in for a beverage to go. There's a kids area, currently unoccupied and a local bulletin board of local event happenings.

Well today was the day, and we had docents Ric, Carol and Carol (yes two Carols) who gave us a great tour with lots of historical insight into the location and the history of Morgan Hill.

We also learned you can rent out the Hiram Morgan Hill House for events. Learned a ton from three VERY nice and knowledgeable docents and really enjoyed stopping in.

One day you can be hacking through underbrush to find a spooky old family graveyard from the 18th century, while another may be spent dealing with disinterested or bilious government clerks who want nothing more than for you to go away and leave them alone. My half-dozen visits to the San Benito County Historical Society over the past year rank as some of my most pleasurable research trips. The museum itself, which occupies a rambling old Prairie-style home on 5th street in Hollister, is a nice collection of county history and artifacts. But the research room annex, which is only opened limited hours (usually the 2nd Monday of each month), is a treasure trove of county history, and a fascinating place to lose yourself for hours on end. The museum and research room are strictly staffed by volunteers, and most are well-versed in county history, with extensive knowledge of the early settlers and culture of the area. They are uniformly friendly, and generous with their time in helping visitors in their research. They have detailed records of property transactions, incarcerations, births, marriages, death, insanity committals -- all the things that make families so interesting! Those interested in the museum will have to plan around limited hours, as it is only open on Saturdays from 1-3. With the research room being even more limited in availability, I see that as worth docking one star from an otherwise 5-star affair. It's a great place for learning about this relatively small but interesting county, and a terrific resource for those with roots in the area.
