Among Greenery
It’s been uncomfortably hot lately and I know it’s only going to get hotter as it gets closer and closer to summer. Fortunately, it seems like we’re going to get some respite for a week or so with cooler weather. The issue, present already, whether it be hot or cool are the mosquitoes.

By the Water
It’s Spring, yet there are times when the weather gets almost unbearably hot. It’s a sign that summer is fast approaching. Of course, there are days that remind me of Autumn – nice, cool and refreshing. These Autumn-like days in Spring are only going to get fewer and fewer as it gets closer and closer to Summer. The best way to keep cool is to be by the water. -
Santa Anita Depot
In a somewhat hidden place of The Arboretum is the Santa Anita Depot. I’m thinking it’s safe to say that not many visitors of The Arboretum are aware of this hidden gem of a museum. It’s full of history and I’m glad to have finally run into the Santa Anita Depot.

Peacock Day at the Arboretum
Peacock Day at the Los Angeles County Arboretum felt like Spring. It was sunny and the peacocks were “everywhere” on the grounds. It was highly likely that you’d catch a glimpse of a peacock showing off its spread out feathers in hopes to attract you (lol) and a potential mate! -
Mariachi Festival
On a cool, Saturday evening, a Mariachi Festival was held. I initially planned on staying for only an hour or two but ended up staying for much longer. Fortunately, it wasn’t as cold as I thought it’d be. Being under a tent, surrounded by many attendees was helpful to keep the cold weather at bay. Of course, there was the occasional breeze that would come through now and then but it was rare and bearable.
