I was in Downtown Oakland early one morning and I saw this cool house. It turns out it was the Pardee Home Museum. The home was the residence of George Pardee who was the Governor of California from 1903-1907. He was the first California governor born in California after it became a state:
I didn't get to walk in the house as it was like 7:30am but the grounds were stunning to walk and poke around in the early morning.
What a neat little piece of history! Those gardens look amazing.
