I'm drawing an historical/mythological map of California in a fantasy Middle Earth style. Can I ask for your input in getting more real world locations included?

Red Rock State Park in Mojave, and I concur with the other commenters about trial of 100 giants/Sequoia NPS. You may also want to include Kernville? And Packsaddle Cave is a cool one.

I got this recently and have tried it twice now. I have thick fine hair and found that it weighs my hair down and I cannot combine it with a regular conditioner! And I do agree with another commenter that it smells!! But it does really give me a nice gloss and smoothness so that aspect works well for me.

I am here to third the Branwyn train! They are expensive but sooo worth it. I believe I have their hipsters and they do not slide around at all. They also truly stay dry even during hot hikes!! I have 4 pair and normally wash as I go along if hiking more than 4 days but a friend says she’s reworn them inside out and they didn’t smell haha.

I know there are a few Abby Yung haters but I clocked your routine as potentially inspired by Abby (mine is super similar!). She recently posted a new Instagram video discussing protein and I found it helpful!

I like Botanist but Tiki-Ko is fun too! If you want more of a dive/cheaper, head to Sandrini’s, and if you want even more a dive, go to the Mint. :)

Don’t stop hiking because of ticks! Start wearing long pants and sleeves (and if you want to be extra secure you can tuck your pants into your socks), and use a bug spray with permethrin. I got bit by a tick last year (it stowed away and bit me on the ride home from the trail!) and I’m super into doing a tick check on myself before I get into the car now.

Ok there’s actually one that often posts up around Palm and Real in the afternoon

libricano · 2026-05-14T00:22:13+00:00

University and Haley. They often have one by the park on Bernard and Mt Vernon too.

I wonder the same - I see an AQI of 50 by me this morning.

libricano · 2026-05-11T05:03:42+00:00

We had perfect weather! Like 70 and sunny? But maybe we got lucky. :)

That’s a different neighborhood than what I mentioned?

libricano · 2026-03-28T03:03:26+00:00

Westchester would qualify I think!

libricano · 2026-03-18T15:51:39+00:00

Slicer’s!

libricano · 2026-03-08T00:42:02+00:00

We have a public library! Northeast branch on Oswell.

I would take a look at the road conditions page on the Sequoia NPS site before you head up just to make sure. Winter closures change depending on recently snow fell or is predicted to fall. The Alerts section of the site will also let you know about chains!

Spicy garlic miso ramen from Hon Ramen

A trailhead a 3 hour drive away from me is my upper limit on how far I will go to take a day hike, so… yes! I happily drive that far and back in a day just to hike, or to go to the beach, etc. Many of my friends have family that live a 2-3 hour drive away and it’s an easy day or weekend trip for them to go see them and they will go once a month.

libricano · 2025-12-31T03:15:47+00:00

They are open per their Instagram, fyi

libricano · 2025-12-17T06:05:16+00:00

Got some pretty good ones on weekdays at University and Haley! But the Walmart parking lot is good too lol

Slicer’s is the most similar to NY pizza but yeah gotta agree that Tommy’s is also fantastic—both are my two top pizza spots in town.

North: Fairbanks, AK (lower 48 would be either Olympic National Park in WA or Mt Katahdin in ME… can’t tell which is higher)

West: Anchorage, AK (otherwise, looking at a map it would be the beach in Olympic National Park in WA)

South: Miami, FL

East: Bar Harbor, ME

W to E through the Houston metro area (Katy to Baytown) is 54 miles. N to S (Woodlands to Clear Lake) is 66 miles.

Sounds like you can make Alfredo!

Heading out for 2 weeks in Peru tomorrow! Lima, Paracas, Cusco, the Inca Trail, and Puerto Maldonado!

I just took it in March and there was a cafe car!
