I woke up Saturday morning with the urge to get out and take a hike! Our apartment is 15 minutes away from Griffith Park (one of my favorite LA places), so naturally that was where I headed. The sun was out and the temperature rising but that didn't stop me. I packed my boyscouts backpack and set out on my hike at 12:38pm and didn't make it back down until 2:40pm. I had such a good time! I enjoyed this 'me time'. I always hear or read a lot of people claiming they are taking "me time" but I never really tried it or felt like I needed to. Well Saturday was one of those days. Once I started hiking I felt great, I didn't feel like I needed anyone to be there with me. I hiked up to the Griffith Observatory (bumped into A LOT of tourists snapping photos, even a fashion blogger taking some outfit of the day shots) and kept going passing 'Dantes View'. Around 3' o clock I took off my shoes and socks and laid under some trees. The wet soil and grass felt incredibly fresh and I was sure to take everything in. It was a great time to clear my mind and prepare myself for the future.
