Another Exploratory Weekend

Ryan and I like to play a little game called "Who Can Spend the Least Amount of Money?!" So far I'm winning (my hunger tolerance is much higher than Ryan's).

So this weekend we continued on our quest to not spend any frivolous money by going for a free hike. This hike is obviously built for the crazy people that think walking at a 45 degree angle is fun. About half-way in I checked my heart rate and it felt like I'd already burned 400 calories on the elliptical.

I'm fatigued just typing that.

But the view at the top was worth it! While LA is smoggy, only rains once every 97 days, and is outrageously expensive in all aspects of life, getting to hike through a mountain is a treat! It reminds me of the days when my family used to hike the Avila in Caracas on the weekends when I was younger.
