hiking after work

I have been taking hikes a few times a week after work here in Santa Barbara. It's been great! Some gorgeous views from the mountains here in town. Most of the trails have been through areas that were burned in fires last year. Lots of great views and new wildflowers because of it.




A hike in Rattlesnake canyon. This was the only reptile I saw. I have a few of these running around my apartment complex as well.

I didn't get a close up of the circular building on the top of the hill.





A nice view from the top of Inspiration point. I guess if this wasn't the view I wouldn't be online sending you this info.

Some better views from Inspiration point

Over looking down town Santa Barbara you can see Santa Cruz Island on the horizon.
