View from the lookout at Peter's Canyon Regional Park while on a hike with my wife @delifefull_. This pic really doesn't do it justice. #hike #travellocal #delifefull #outplanettravel #orangecountyca #peterscanyontrail

Great hike today in Peter's Canyon with my wife @delifefull_. The lake here is really just a patch of dirt and an irrelevant dam. I know there is a proposition on the ballot where LA politicians are claiming that Northern California's are trying to weild control over "local" control of their water resources. But this is EXACTLY what LA has been doing to the rest of the state. It's a perfect example of why we should split California into at least three states. If LA had to pay for their water, 30% of it might not be wasted on landscaping. Anyway, sad to see the lake be dry regardless. #travellocal #hike #delifefull #outplanettravel #orangecountyca #orangeca

This is a cool monkey on the wall. A relief sculpture at Chipotle in Buena Park not far from where I used to work. I ate dinner here the other night with my wife @delifefull_ and buddy @jtbrown831. I told them I'd dedicate this post to them LOL. Cheers guys! #monkey #sculpture #chipotle #findbeautywhereyouare #jtbrown831 #delifefull #outplanettravel #travellocal

RECIPE BELOW: Patacones! Ok @ticobavaro I followed your directions for patacones! I listed what I did (right or wrong) below. I went to La Carreta Supermarket in Orange, CA on Chapman. They have great deals on produce, and it’s my hook up for plantains on the regular. I prepped the plantains as I usually do, by cutting off the ends, running a slit down the husk with the knife, and peeling it off with my fingers. Once peeled, I cut the plantains into four roughly equal parts. I laid them on their sides to fry. This seemed to make sense to me because it got more of the plantain in the avocado oil – healthy fat and fairly stable cooking oil. Ifried them for three minutes on each side. Once done I stood them up on my cutting board which I covered with some parchment paper. The smashing part was tricky ’cause these guys were ‘effin H-O-T!! So… I took another small piece of parchment paper, my spatula (for a firm flat smash), and a folded paper towel (as an insulator from the heat). Generally it was easy and they smashed right down! Finally, fruits of my labor! Delicious! Thanks again for the tip @ticobavaro and Pura Vida!! #delicious #deliciousfood #plantain #patacones #recipe #costarica #puravida #travel #travellocal #outplanettravel #ticobavaro

I am blessed by these amazing views of the sunrise every day on the way to work. Mornings are hard, but made better with coffee and beauty where I travel. #findbeautywhereyouare #sunrise #carvista #travellocal #outplanettravel
