Up The Road In Milpitas

So earlier this year I was up in Milpitas on business and got done early. It was late afternoon and the warm light was bathing the green hills to the east. I was drawn to them and followed the road up into the hills to see what was there. I wound my way up past a beautiful park and into another land. It was rural and rustic. Cows grazing, chickens in the yard and even turkeys roaming freely on one property.
It was like going into ranch country and yet a few minutes away is the Silicon Valley, old tech to the east and super high tech to the west. As I wound my way up I was taking in the warm afternoon with the beautiful green hills and deep blue sky. It was like a mini afternoon
vacation quiet, peaceful, the wind blowing lightly and the warm sun bathing my surroundings. This series of images was taken along this road on a peaceful late afternoon. They remind me of the old west. The rolling hills, staking your claim, riding off into the sunset where ever the road will take you.
