Runyon Canyon

The view to the Hollywood sign.  Our old house was on the far ridge.

So, you often hear about or see pictures from Runyon Canyon.
.
It is a trail in Los Angeles where you go if you want to see stars.  At some point almost everyone hikes Runyon.  It is a great city trail.
.
Gavin and his sister actually ran it when they were practicing for the marathon.
.
It is closing soon for work on water pipes, so Eddie and I were glad it was open this last week-end when we were in LA.  We hiked it with Gavin, his sister, his sister's partner and Casy / Clompers - Gavin's dog.
.
It was cool and I have some pictures so you can see it.

Lynette (in the blue) was not a fan of heights and this was one place that scared her.

Views from near the top looking down.

From near the top - a view down to the base of the trail.  Over on the upper right - Century City.
