Berkeley to the Salinas Valley
Apr. 5, 1920

Left Berkeley about 2:45 o'clock, Monday. Took my sister Josie with me who is to travel to friends at Los Angeles. The fields about Centerville were wonderfully blue, a deep blue, with the flowering of Phacelia ciliata. Picked up the camp equipment of H. A. Dutton at San Jose. Camped the first night in the little oak grove on the first river bench at Sargent. The oak trunks have been terribly mutilated by campers and automobilists. Next day, on to San Juan Bautista where David Douglas once stopped. There is an old building, now added to [as?] the Plaza Hotel, which was built in 1792. The arcades of the Mission and the church itself are in excellent preservation. The church is disfigured by an ugly and very cheap wooden tower. There are several old buildings about the Plaza.
