New Week, Freshly Relaxed!

Hello mah crazies. So I've been doing this thing for a while where I wake up pretty darn early for a Saturday and I go on hikes with a group of friends. Usually our excursions take place in Temescal or Runyon Canyon. This week, however, we trekked up to Santa Anita with my friend Kristen, Kyle, his sister Corey (and her delightfully cute doggy, Wickett) and Dee.

It wasn't far at all (it's in Pasadena) but the road up to the hike was so swervy I almost puked (I get carsick REALLY easy). No matter though because it was all worth it when we got there. It was beautiful! Our goal was to reach a waterfall at the end of the trail. It was mega-chilly that morning but once we commenced our journey we completely forgot about the weather...until we reached our destination and Wickett decided to dive into the lagoon. Just seeing her shake made me cold all over again. All in all, for those of you who like to hike on trails, I highly recommend this one.

It's so cold, yet so pretty.
