Had our baby in early December, hooray!! Anyone interested in meeting up with little ones to go on a nice long stroll or mini-hike? Hope all of you are swell :)

Hi Sarah!

Welcome to the group.  We haven't actually done any hikes together -- I think we are all fairly spread out (as you know, Southern Cali is a big place) albeit not as big as Alaska!!  If you wanted to organize a hike sometime, the Santa Monica Mountains up in the Los Angeles area are really great for day hikes, as is the Angeles Crest National Forest.  I'm having my second baby in a few days so probably won't be up for a hike for a little while yet, but do keep me posted!!

 

Welcome Again!

Hey So Cal Outdoor Families!

My family and I just moved to San Clemente from Anchorage, Alaska and are in desperate need of some good parks, natural areas in the area, and peeps like us.  Do you all ever to get together for hikes?

This is not a camping suggestions but you really should go to the San Diego Zoo a great place.  But we hated Sea world, I would skip that.

 

Also theire is a great park outside of San Diego designed by a women artist but I don't remember the name of it something like queen latifa.... anyways that is a beautiful place to see. very urban outdoors.

woops, I just realized I should have posted this topic as a new discussion...

 

Debi, thank you so much!  I love your blog, and will probably be in touch with you in the next couple of weeks as we start to solidify our plans.  Thank you!

Not sure this is what you're asking for, but I've written about quite a few locations in So Cal that my family & I have visited on my blog at http://goexplorenature.blogspot.com. Check under the heading "L.A.-Area Day Trips" heading for inspiration. And feel free to email me any specific questions you might have.

 

Hope you have a wonderful trip, Sarah!

Hi Cali Campers,

My family has to be in LA for a wedding in early August, and will probably make a vacation of it.  We're not really into the Disneyland sort of vacation, and would like some suggestions for spending about a week in the LA/San Diego area.  We love to camp and hike, but I'm not sure late summer weather in southern California is really great for that.  Early in our marriage, my hubby and I tent-camped in Death Valley in late July.  Big (stupid) mistake.  Anyway, we'd appreciate any ideas you might have for us.

Get those feet naked this weekend.  On Saturday the first naked foot race check it out and see an OBN banner: http://www.thenakedfoot5k.com/events/santa-barbara-ca/

You just go to Options then edit group.  I think anyone can change the picture but not sure.

Hi all, just a heads up that Olivia is on vacation right now, so you'll have to be patient!
