JANUARY 22, 2023. ESCONDIDO, CA. The Sikes Adobe Historic Farmhouse at 12655 Sunset Dr. A one-room adobe structure was built in 1872 by the Sikes family of pioneer farmers. It is one of the area’s oldest adobe homes now owned by the San Dieguito River Park Joint Powers Authority. Except for the adobe walls, the 2007 Witch Creek Fire destroyed the structures. After restoration it was reopened in June 2010. The home is the first of five that will be part of the North San Diego County Adobe Home Tour on March 26, 2023. (Photograph by Don Bartletti)
