Saturday took Dude and Chico to check out the haunted forrest in Altadena

Professor Thaddeus S. C. Lowe's mountain railway and resort was Southern California's must-visit attraction, drawing more than three million visitors from1896 to 1936. Echo Mountain (3207'), known as "The White City," was the heart of the resort with its elegant Echo Mountain House hotel, chalet, observatory, and small zoo. It has all since vanished, but this fascinating hike takes you to the ruins of this official historic landmark.
this is some of what used to be there
It rained on us and we got wet and cold but it was still fun, and the babies had a fun time and got really tuckered out.
Sunday we went to Mt. Baldy's Lower San Antonio Fire Station. I am sure there is another name for it but I don't know it. We walked along the old old old baldy road and had to cross the "river" and we walked to some old cars that we think fell off the mountain. Oh and i tripped and twisted my ankle a bit, luckily I had found a good stick to walk with so I didn't get too hurt. It's not even sore today.
