Off Road with Land Rover!

Last weekend I had the privilege to tag along with one of my best friends on an amazing off-road trip with Land Rover of Encino!  Let me be the first to say “I get it” the experience was definitely on the luxury side- even though we and the vehicles got down right dirty!  Land Rover of Encino takes their clients on various trips such as Joshua Tree and Ojai but this trip was just about 60 miles outside of downtown Los Angeles at a California state park named, Hungry Valley State Vehicular RecreationArea.  The park provides about 130 miles of trails for various levels of off-road adventures plus an amazing obstacle course with sand traps, rock and bolder courses, deep and shallow water traps and extremely steep hills a.k.a. you cannot see the tip of your car and at times you are literally driving by faith! If you own or know someone who owns a motorcycle, four-wheel drive, or all-terrain vehicle and you are looking for a day trip or even somewhere to camp where you can have a fun-filled day of exploring and testing your personal  and your vehicle's extreme limits I would definitely recommend visiting this state park.  Remember, do not forget to pack sunscreen, plenty of water and lunch – if you get to go with Land Rover of Encino they have all of this covered for you!  Enjoy and let me know about your “Extreme Adventures” as I’m always looking for new ideas!

Here are a few photos from the day! 

 Cheers!

Beach City Real Estate

Today I took a fun bike ride through Los Angeles' Beach Cities: Malibu, Santa Monica, Venice and Marina Del Rey.  It was a great day and hundreds of locals were out enjoying their day as well.  Right now the market in Los Angeles is on fire! If you are thinking about Buying or Selling a home to be closer to the beach lifestyle, now is the time to do it!  Summer is a great time to transition.  If you are even considering living near the beach, whether it be your permanent residence or a vacation home or condo, I would encourage you to take a peak at the housing inventory. You might just find your perfect home  - close to the beach, great shopping, world famous restaurants and fantastic entertainment!

Cheers!

Get out!

There are many opportunities in Los Angeles to exercise outside. One of my personal favorite outside activities is hiking! Not only are your natural endorphins released and your muscles working hard to keep you fit but you are also enjoying the beauty of outdoors! Although there are several areas in which you can hike, and I encourage you to try them all, I recently discovered "Tree People" inside of the Coldwater Canyon Park and really enjoy it. The entire loop will take you about 40 minutes to hike if you are walking. Parking is easy. The Coldwater Canyon entrance offers free parking and the Fryman entrance always has plenty of parking but you do have to pay a small fee. Why not take an hour out of your day or weekend and take advantage of this great hike and views. Lastly, don't forget your sunscreen, shades and a hat!
