Hiking in Bandit Country
This weekend we took advantage of the beautiful weather and headed over to Vasquez Rocks. This is the only park in Los Angeles county named after a bandit, who used the place as a hideout back in the day.
You have probably seen this place once or twice whether you realize it or not. A ton of television shows and movies have used the park's rock formations as a location, most notably the Star Trek episode "Arena." (I looked and looked but could not find any bamboo for cannon-making, should any Gorn show up.)

That is one super cute picture of Cam peeking over the rock. The rest of them aren't too shabby either! : )

That's too bad that you didn't find any bamboo, and I suppose you didn't stumble onto any coal or any of those naturally occuring nice neat piles of sulfur or potassium nitrate. But what I want to know is if you found any of those native piles of diamonds just lying on the ground?

Guess who gets to meet Leonard Nimoy next spring! He's narrating for one of our concerts.
