Fremont Older Open Space Hiking
If the alarm did not go on strike on Sunday morning,
If be able to leave the warm bed without too much struggle,
If the weather is good enough without rain,
without too much sun,
without too much wind,
If Pastor Samuel and Susan can be free from their pile of todo tasks,
If no need to drive around for kids extra activities,
If be able to leave the warm bed without too much struggle,
If the weather is good enough without rain,
without too much sun,
without too much wind,
If Pastor Samuel and Susan can be free from their pile of todo tasks,
If no need to drive around for kids extra activities,
then we can have a short easy Sunday morning hike.
So far, we had been following hiking trails:
- Saratoga Castle Rock Park
- Saratoga SanBorn Skyline County Park
- Saratoga Vila Montalvo
- Los Altos Ranch San Antonio
Fremont Older Open Space Preserve
Located on the Fremont Older Preserve is the historic "Woodhills" home.
The house was built in 1914 and purchased by the District in 1975.
Welcome to join us for an easy, relaxing and healthy Sunday
morning hike.
Just give Pastor Hsiao a ring !!

"He must increase, but I must decrease. —John 3:30"
A music professor with a well-trained voice usually sang the major male solo parts in the choir of a large church. A young man named Bob who had no training sometimes took a few shorter solos. As the choir director prepared for the Christmas cantata, she felt that Bob’s voice and style made him a natural for the lead role. However, she didn’t know how she could give it to him without offending the older man.
Her anxiety was unnecessary. The professor had the same thoughts as she did, and he told her that Bob should take the part. He continued to sing faithfully in the chorus and was a source of much encouragement to Bob.
People who can set aside selfish ambition and genuinely seek the good of others have an attitude that pleases God. Do you remember how John the Baptist reacted when the crowds left him and began following Jesus? He said, “He must increase, but I must decrease” (John 3:30).
What did John the Baptist and the music professor have in common? They were able to set aside “selfish ambition.” They were happy to see others elevated above themselves when it was for the common good. Can the same be said about us? — Herbert Vander Lugt

This is the highest learning, The hardest and the best From self to keep still turning And honor all the rest.

we do things others will remember.

Santa Cruz 一日遊
老哥自台灣遠方來美探望我們，
整天呆在家都快發霉了！
蕭牧師、師母、 恩惠、和我
決定請一天假，
捨命陪這位貴客，
大夥也順便給自己偷一天閒。
五個近半百的老前鋒會，
帶著年少時的興奮，
郊遊去喔！
第一站
Henry Cowell Redwoods Park

這已是我 N 次來這紅木森林。
就是愛上它的樸靜、它的純美、它的清香、
漫步參天古木間，沐浴森林芬多精，
與大自然更貼近了！

攝於紅木群前
別緻的垃圾桶
充滿朝氣的榨浆草
在森林裡，總是陰陰涼涼的！
我們調皮的師母，爬起樹來了！
下一站來到
Loch Lomond 水庫
遊湖外，還可以划船。
湖中有一個小島，
可以在上面午餐小憩。
打道回府時，
還有一對可愛的野鴨
來為我們送行呢！
