I've hiked, camped and backpacked for many years. One day while hiking with a group, I heard people talking about some local hot springs, and it sounded interesting so I wanted to find out more.  Long story short, within a few years, I've gone to most of the hot springs in Southern California and many up north as well. Hot springs are special places.  They truly do have medicinal and stress relieving properties.  If you have any silver jewelry you will see the healing mineral content of the wate …

The terms Renaissance man is used to describe a man (or woman, as "Renaissance woman") who is well educated or who excels in a wide variety of subjects or fields. The idea developed in Renaissance Italy from the notion expressed by one of its most accomplished representatives, Leon Battista Alberti (1404–72): that “a man can do all things if he will.” It embodied the basic tenets of Renaissance Humanism which considered man empowered, limitless in his capacities for development, and led to the n …

This group is for all parents of young children who are interested in nurturing an early learning of the Spanish language in their children. "Early research suggested that learning two languages in early childhood is detrimental to a child's cognitive abilities. This was due to the idea that the two languages were learned independently and the knowledge of learning one did not transfer into the other". I am a working mom of a adventurous 6 year old, and have tried to join other mommy groups, but …
