Hidden Villa is a gem of an organic farm and wilderness area located on the upper Adobe Creek watershed at the base of Black Mountain in Los Altos Hills. The foothills here are part of the Santa Cruz Mountain Range and are interestingly just a stones throw from Silicon Valley.
Here, spring time was running rampant at the farm, with a nice mix of cultivated flowers and indigenous flora. The farm is part of a nonprofit educational organization that teaches programs on environmental and multicultural awareness. My kind of place--great spot to spend a morning in spring time and the new baby animals are to die for.

This shot was taken later in the evening at a wedding reception at oakhill farm in New Maryland, NB. Kind of a boring shot but I haven't posted a landscape shot in a while so decided to put it up.
I captured this barn by accident. I was trying to capture the sundog for my dad... we were driving, I really didn't expect to get a nice shot. As I was going through my photos I saw this barn in my sundog photo and had to make it work. The sky that night was so cool, I couldn't stop shooting, I don't even remember taking this one tbh lol I don't think it's perfect but I wanted to add it to my barn album. :) happy Saturday! Definitely view large!!

From an overcast day last February, before the pandemic.
A leisurely mid week jaunt to the biopark.
Happy ~~fence friday~~
This was someone’s home, but no longer - abandoned farms dot the area among rich wheat, barley, canola and other crops. While the dune-like loess hills in The Palouse are incredibly fertile with layers of rich silt, farming is a hard and risky business.

The Mapmaker’s Song
The mapmaker downed his tools.
I’ve caught it, every alley, every street,
every fanlight and window-ledge,
the city fixed and framed.
Now I want everything else.
I want to be a historian of footsteps,
a cartographer of hemlines and eyelids,
I want to catch what the pavements say
when they sing to each other
in their deep laboratories, plotting
every journey since the place began.
I want the whole
unlosable database, the repeating place,
kings stalking the server farms,
tailbacks and looped alarms,
I want to be where
brushstrokes flicker on a bank of screens,
where graveyards tilt
and quiet populations crowd the air,
their quarters risen again
their furniture
smashing through the floors.
I want to stand at the centre
of a great clutter
mapping ashes, mapping bones,
archivist, enumerator, hanger-on
signing the returns
of an infinite census.
I want to be,
beyond everything I’ve reached or drawn,
not much at all, or all there is,
a geographer of breath,
a curator of hands.
I want to lie in the atrium
of the museum of the fingertip
and touch, touch, touch.

On this walk in the surroundings of Tillegem Castle (see my preceding shot), I saw this farmhouse, probably a beautifully renovated old farm, and horses grazing on nearby meadows.
This farm is right along the Hudson. I imagine the view from the hill of the farm has a fantastic view.
