Hidden in Escondido ~ Wednesday, June 30, 2021

On our recent trip to the San Diego area, we stayed near Escondido, an inland suburb in north county (and and of the line for the Sprinter Train).

Looking for a grocery store, I found an outdoor history museum in a city park. The town's original Santa Fe depot is here (I don't think this is the original location). There is an RPO car parked in front of it.

A recent graduate was using this as a backdrop for graduation pictgures.

There are a few other interesting old buildings gathered here, like a blacksmith shop and Escondido's first library.

Escondido's downtown seems to be lively. Sue met an old friend at a tea shop, and there are a couple of other likely looking spots for entertainment on Grand Ave, the town's main drag.
