Had a chance to get away from all the madness and take a short hike over at the Sepulveda Basin Wildlife Preserve. If you live in the LA area and have never heard of it, you should definitely check it out. It’s a green space and wildlife refuge near the intersection of the 101 and the 405 that will totally fool you into thinking you’ve driven hours to get out of the city. If hiking isn’t your thing, check out the Sepulveda Dam (I watched them film parts of Iron Man 2 there), the LA Japanese Gardens, the cricket tournaments on the weekends, the model airplane landing strip, or Lake Balboa.
There’s seriously so much to do here; or, you can just sit, enjoy the beautiful environment, and let the hustle and bustle slip away…
