I wandered around today where the native Kumeyaay people introduced Father Junipero Serra to the best spot for a church in what would become San Diego. From where I tramped around the trails and the hill that became known as Mission Hills in San Diego, I could see the ocean to the West and the mountains beginning at the far end of Mission Valley. What a place this San Diego is.
Anyone can go inside the museum on Saturday or Sunday. Special groups are admitted to the museum on week days. The building was planned more than a hundred years ago by William Templeton Johnson who designed the building in Balboa Park that now houses the San Diego Museum of Art. Johnson and his wife Clara were the founders of Francis Parker School in 1912. The Lower School Buildings in Mission Hills are clearly “Johnson.”
