I remember in the 70s, there were still parts of a flume that went from Lexington Dam down to Forbes Mill. Back then, parents would throw you out of the house if the weather was even remotely nice with the admonishment not to come home until the street lights came on. We'd go play hide & seek out there. No one ever got hurt. And it was pretty cool.
Forbes Mill is now a history museum and a steakhouse.
Raised in Los Gatos, I moved back here. Learn some history as well as current events and get steeped in the culture of a bedroom community that is uniquely Silicon Valley. See the day to day doings from my eyes as I walk around and try out new and old restaurants and shops. Help me remember names of stores of times gone by. We moved here in 1976, and I've watched the town grow from an artists' community to the rich bedroom community of today.
