FREMONT, CA — Tony Wang captured this bucolic scene at Rancho Higuera Historical Park in Fremont.

Have you visited Rancho Higuera? Here's a description from the park's website, "Sitting in the Rancho Higuera Historical Park is an old adobe building, one of the last remaining buildings in Washington Township from the Spanish-Mexican era of California (1776 – 1848). The adobe was built between 1830 and 1840 on land granted to Fulgencio Higuera."

Imagine a building here in Fremont that's almost 200 years old.
