L.A.
One of our favorite things to do each summer is to go to the
"Corral outdoor movie theater". They are a family owned theater.. They pop fresh popcorn.. They have metal lawn chairs or you can take your folding chairs.
There is also The Blue Hole Regional Park.. Picnic, swimming.. beautiful.

Also the little shops are all really cute. If you can stay at a camp site.. it is really beautiful there in the spring and summer.
