I (we) spent uncountable days at Vasona, with friends, watching the sail boats, playing catch with a football, fishing and picnicking. A few times we had planned to go to Santa Cruz, but the traffic was at a stand still, so would diverted to Vasona. We no longer live in San Jose (Campbell), but were through there on hwy 17 a few year back. I didn't recognize the area at all. The tree and other plant growth was not to be believed. Didn't even get a glimpse of the "percolation ponds". I don't know how long it's been since you were there, but you'd likely shed another tear if you were to have a look at the development in that area. No longer "The Valley of Heart's Delight".
