Recently though they wouldn't let me upload more photos, seems like I reached a critical threshold of using their precious cloud storage.

Google is introducing generative AI to its Maps application, initially rolling out the feature to select Local Guides in the US. The generative AI feature allows users to ask for information about places using natural language, and Google's large-language models will analyze the Maps database to provide relevant answers.

This closed beta phase with Local Guides aims to gather insights and feedback to refine the feature before a wider release. Users can ask specific questions, such as "places with a vintage vibe in San Francisco," and receive detailed information with photos, ratings, and reviews from the Maps community.

#Today I got to drive deep into Almaden Valley past Calero Reservoir.

Normally, I would only get to see this area while road biking through. Today, a #DoorDash delivery took me through to shortcut my way back to Santa Teresa.

I never mind a drive that provides a lovely view! Read the #AltText to get more info.

If you want to visit Calero to experience this yourself: https://goo.gl/maps/NtYSrdcf1EhgL1uA6

The roadway entrance to Calero County Park in the south of San Jose's Almaden Valley. The June Gloom is providing a cloudy morning. The wildflowers, in this case wild mustard, are blooming all along the area surrounding the reservoir. After a very wet winter, this body of water is finally FULL of water!

Across the road are the hills covered in quickly drying out grass. The emerald greens of winter and spring are giving way to the tans of summer. The marine layer, also know around here as the "June Gloom", has not yet burned off for the day. Sprinkled in the grassy landscape are California Live Oaks. Beautiful giants that dominate the distant hill.

One more view of the hills beyond the northwest edge of the lake. The sun has managed to burn off a window in the marine layer. In the distance, you can see the marine layer hanging back, waiting to creep back in later.

#LifeInWillowGlen. Even in neighborhoods as upscale as Willow Glen, you'll find some great street art in #SanJose!

#Today #LocalGuides #StreetArt

Colorful mural painted on the side of a building. It depicts all of the many things that the neighborhood of Willow Glen in South San Jose is represented by. Some of those things are the roses and California poppies that are blooming like crazy right now in the neighborhoods. A mom pushing a jog stroller with a baby in it, not an uncommon site! Various street signs of popular parts of Willow Glen such as Frank Bramhall Park.

At the center is a small map of the area that encompasses Willow Glen. Signed by the artist, Lila Gemellos in the lower right hand corner.

Happy Friday #BayArea and beyond!

A couple of pics from the week. We managed to survive #Snowmaggedon California style. Mt. Hamilton is beautiful from my neighborhood at 10x zoom on my #Pixel7Pro 😎

Daffodils are going crazy in my #yard. Lots of other stuff getting ready to join them.

#HotTip for the weekend if you can get to #SanFrancisco.

Saturday is #AmericanTulipDay🌷🌷

Go pick out a bouquet of your own for free! Check the details here --> https://flowerbulbday.com/

A snow covered Mt. Hamilton against a clear blue sky. A pine tree trunk in the foreground indicates that this photo was taken using a zoom. Details including the Mt. Hamilton Observatory buildings are easy to recognize.

Daffodils flowering like crazy! A large mass of daffodils blooming at the end of a driveway. The mostly clear blue sky is the backdrop, a few fluffy white clouds and the winter bare trees add texture.

Hello World....again 😎

You might have already seen me on my cyperpunk.earth instance. If you like me there, you'll love me over here!

I'm a long time #SanJose resident with an interest in exploring every inch of the Bay Area. I'm a Google Local Guide on Google Maps with tons of pictures and reviews of all manner of things. 😂

Always looking for something new to try. I'll be posting those adventures here on the #Local side.
