Oops! We did it again! It’s only been 7 weeks since Arleena and I last visited Murray Hill (otherwise known as the Unnamed Hill)/ Reservoir Canyon Trail. I cannot believe we chose to do the other side – and on a sweltering 90-degree sunny day no less! The last time we ventured up this […]...

Have you noticed all the store ads and emails coming in with bathing suits on sale? I don’t know about you, but I am definitely not looking forward to putting one of those on any time soon. While the Winter cold makes it easy to cover up, the Spring and Summer don’t. For me, I […]...

After being sick for a week, I was ready to “get back on horse” as they say and kick butt hiking. I was on my own this week and didn’t want to hit an all-new spot, so I chose the Sycamore Crest Trail. This trail is the backside trail to one of our first […]...
