This week, when you feel the need to push yourself away from the table and take a break from Thanksgiving events, we encourage you to #OptOutside. Chances are, there’s a park, wildlife refuge or other public lands a short drive away. All this week, we’ll be sharing great places to explore this weekend.
Sure, you’re happy to see your family in Los Angeles, but can you really visit California and not go to the beach? #OptOutside to marvel at the Pacific Ocean at Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. Explore the shoreline or take it all in from the hills above. You might enjoy it almost as much as grandma’s potato salad. Photo by Steve Lanctot (www.sharetheexperience.org).
