Welcome! If you are new here or if you are a seasoned veteran, I am glad you stopped by my blog. Over the years I have been collecting my experiences here, both the good and the bad, to chronicle the great state of California and what it has to offer everyone who visits, as well as all of the people who have never realized something cool was right outside of their backdoor. So this post is a great jumping off point, it is my list of favorite things in California. I apologize in advance for the fact that so much of it is Southern California based but I will get more Northern posts as the blog progresses. Check back often as I plan to update it regularly as I explore more. You can also check out my guide to California’s National Parks and Monuments for a list of some tips on what to do in California’s amazing National Parks. Have fun!

So there you have it, a great selection of jumping off points if I do say so myself. Hope this blog makes your time in California more enjoyable, and I would love to hear from any of you with suggestions or comments. -Josh
