On the Search

Jake and I really enjoy the outdoors and with gas prices so high (its $4/gal out here!) we don't want to have to travel far to enjoy nature. We've found some nice spots that are within a 15min drive from our home.
The first place we found was in Fullerton, it's called "Laguna lake" with plenty of ducks and fish around. As you can tell, Jake really enjoyed being by the water. Us Minnesotan's gotta find our lakes ya? YOU BETCHA

I found a stump that was lovely!

Another and possibly my favorite so far has been Whittier hills

From the top of the hike we can overlook the city of LA and there is a beautiful mosque and burial site

Despite the steep incline and hard work it takes to get to the top, we're still smiling.

We might complain how we're stuffed in a dirty city, but I must admit there are some really beautiful things in Los Angeles.
