Description
One time, I had this great idea that I wanted to go hiking in this pretty huge nature reserve in Orange County, CA that I had never been to before. It looked somewhat far away by the looks of the map, but it looked so pretty on the website that I couldn't resist.
An hour and $3 for a toll later, I found out the park was closed due to mudslides. But I didn't want my trip to go to waste, so I drove around for another 30 minutes trying to find other nearby trails that were actually open. I found one, but there was no where to park. So I ended up parking at a bar down the street and walking to the entrance.
And I was pretty impressed with what I stumbled on. Obviously, my photography skills are lacking, but this is just a taste of what it looked like. I didn't feel like I was in the busy setting of Southern California. I felt like I was in the country once again.
I had hoped that I could sit under that huge tree and enjoy the sun, but this was actually part of a farm.
Like, there were cows grazing just a little to the side.

This reminds on a place where my cousin and I once went with our bikes. Almost far away from the society.
