Earlier today, Nancy and I met up in Whittier to go hiking there for the second time in two months (though apparently, I forgot to post a Blog entry about that first trip...oh well). The trail we took this time around was more scenic—with the route taking us up a particular hill that really gave us an awesome glimpse of the Southland, most notably downtown Los Angeles on one side of the path and the distant Pacific Ocean and Catalina Island on the other. This was the longest and most grueling hike that we did yet; Nancy and I were both determined to reach what looked like a dilapidated water tank at the top of a hill at the end of the trail. Don't know if this was an actual water tank or a cell tower disguised as one. Either way, it provided a source of motivation for us to keep walking until there was no longer any trail to hike on. It must've been all that graffiti on the side of the tank/tower that lured us in, I dunno. Today's excursion was fun, though. Tiring, but fun.
