Saving Grace


The great outdoors has been my saving grace in this pandemic we had previously relied on Disneyland to fill our weekends but we are finding that there is more to life than theme parks! 😱  That has been a refreshing realization.  From creeks, to walks in the woods to exploring tide pools to waterfalls, Southern California has a ton to offer. They even have snow 50 minutes up the 210!  My eyes are more wide open so kudos to the great outdoors!  

This past Friday, distance learning was done for the week, tons of job applications submitted and well, I felt the need to get out!  So we spoke to the neighbors and headed out. Two weeks ago, all of us went to Sunset Ridge but there were no signs and what we walked on I don’t think was Sunset Ridge as the signs were sparse and the people I asked weren’t sure either and there were a ton of trails. We picked an unlabeled trail and asked people where we were but they seemed to be just as unknowledgable as us! 

Later, we did run into a couple who seemed to know what they were doing and they said to keep walking and we would run into the top of a waterfall.  So we walked and made it to the top but the top did not afford us flowing water (a good view but we wanted magic!) and it was really steep and Momma don’t mess with steep. 

The knowledgeable couple had told us where to park the second time. This time we discovered flowing water! It was a beautiful walk through the woods and then all the sudden you were in this open cavern like area. It felt very Goonie-y-ish so I yelled “Hey You Guys.” Waterfalls are a pretty cool payoff, I recommend.  I think we were in Millard Falls. 🤪😜
