The Guadalupe Park Path

The Guadalupe River runs thru downtown San Jose, north to the San Francisco Bay.  Several years ago, there was an effort to reclaim a rather trashed and squalid riverfront and turn it into a combination park and flood control zone.   We enjoy the park frequently, as it runs close to our home and into the downtown area.

Today it was raining a bit, and the river, which normally is a trickle, was full and flowing freely.
