We are reminded that this year’s Los Gatos historic homes tour is coming up this weekend (Nov 3 & 4, 2007). A $30 ticket (a tax deductible donation to the History Museum of Los Gatos) gets you an all-day (10 am – 4 pm) tour of six outstanding historic houses in Los Gatos’ historic district. If you live in the Bay Area, this is quite a treat; the small and very well maintained historic community may not be well-known outside of the Peninsula, but it should be – this neighborhood has some of the prettiest historic homes in Northern California.
