We discuss the importance of traveling with children, some must-visit parks in Southern California, and what to expect when exploring them. Tune in to get tips on outdoor gear, traveling, and what to pack for a hike with kids. Finally, we wrap up with a discussion about the book and the inspiration readers can get from it."

AHA MOMENT
There is nothing better than when you hear directly from readers who tell you exactly in specific ways how your book- or your blog- has helped them in their journeys, especially when that's the hope that kept you slogging through the book project.
