Will Rogers Hike

So, a little update first....I did this hike the weekend before last.  Last weekend I went back to San Francisco and had a great long weekend in the City.  If the weather cooperates I might be going on two hikes this weekend... stay tuned.

It was raining the day Nathan and I wanted to do a hike.  We were considering blowing it off, but we decided to go for it.  As soon as we got to Will Rogers, the sun came out!  Will Rogers is right on the edge of Santa Monica.  It used to be Will Rogers' ranch and is now a park and polo field.  In case you didn't know (because I didn't) Will Rogers was a silent era movie star.

We got a late start to the hike, so we weren't able to go very far.  Still it offered some good views and it was just nice to get out and get some perspective.  We hiked to inspiration point and admired the view, which was similar to the Trippet Ranch hike view, but not quite as impressive.

We wanted to continue on the Backbone trail, but didn't want to get Nathan's car locked inside the park after sunset.  So it was more of a walk than a hike, but nice to be able to get out of the city so close to it.
