When I read that the Rosicrucian Museum in San Jose is planning a complete remodel of its landscaping, the item really caught my eye....especially because my Halloween costume this year is Cleopatra. The new, prize winning plan is an extension of the educational spaces indoors, and will use drought-tolerant species, California natives, and plants that might have been found in ancient Egyptian gardens.
The Egyptian Museum at Rosicrucian Park has been a fixture of San Jose life for so long that it is hard to imagine a time without it. This is just one more reason we enjoy living in the Valley. Hundreds of thousands of residents and visitors to Northern California have experienced "history coming alive" through the exhibits, tours, lectures and other activities at the Museum. I remember a visit with my family when we first moved to California, and another, years later with a young grandson who was fascinated by most of the exhibits, but refused to enter the dark room with the mummy case.
