Springtime Outdoor Fun in Southern California

Hey everyone it almost Spring!! I know I'm ready for the warm weather as this week we have already seen temps in the 80's in Southern California.

I wanted to remind everyone that lives in the Southern California area to go out and experience the pleasure of living here! Go see the wildflowers that should start appearing soon. A great place is in the Tehachapi's near Gorman. Another area is in the Antelope Valley area or check out Death Valley. Once they start to bloom you'll have about a month to get out and enjoy the beautiful display that nature gives us.

If you love to camp but can't take the time to go far check out some of the great state parks in and around the Los Angeles area. One neat little place that is almost unknown is Malibu Creek State Park. This was once a private ranch and then it became Paramount Pictures property when they filmed much of the M.A.S.H. television show years ago. Now the state owns the land and has turned it into a great place to hike, mountain bike, fish and just enjoy the outdoors. With hundreds of acres of open space come and picnic and spend the day or overnight camp. Bring the horse if you are an equestrian as there are many horse trails to experience. Take a swim with friends and gaze at the mountain views and you may even see a mountain scene that's been on TV and in motion pictures hundreds of times and you never realized it was right here in your own back yard.

If you live in the city check out some of the great parks in your area even for just a few hours. It will help relax you and give you a new perspective on the events of the day.

Go Outdoors!!
