        <title>Los Angeles - Brush Canyon (Bronson Caves) - 2012-01-22 - 10:10:00</title>
        <description>Reichart is in town, and will be joined by his friend and comrade-lawyer in battle Rob. 

The news says they found a severed head in the area a few days ago, so to quote T.S. Garp \&quot;We\'ll take the house. Honey, the chances of another plane hitting this house are astronomical. It\'s been pre-disastered. We\'re going to be safe here.\&quot;

I suggest wearing a turtle-neck.

        <title>Los Angeles - Santa Monica Pier - 2011-10-30 - 12:33:00</title>
        <description>This week we\'ll take to the streets and terrify everyone with our massive, pulsating brains.
That is to say, this will be a great hike for scary costumes, such as the \&quot;Cross Country Hiker.\&quot; 

After the hike, we may linger at the Santa Monica Muscle beach (just south of the pier) to play on the rings and practice our slackline walking.

        <description>Yes, the ASS BURNER.  

This is an EARLY hike for those that want to get up, get up the hill, and have the rest of the day to do other things.

It hurts going up, it hurts coming down.  No CRYING!  No WHINING!

        <description>
The Big Parade LA is a two day urban hike spanning from downtown LA to the Hollywood sign, hitting many public stairways along the way.  Today we\'ll be joining day 2 of the Big Parade LA in exploration of the Silverlake area.   Join in or part ways where you like, but the Geeks are encouraged to join in at either the 8AM or the 9AM location.  You may also consider parking at the Silverlake Recreation Center and walking to your start point.

8:00AM: Start

9:00 AM: Main Loop Begins
- Silverlake, 4.0 Miles, Meet: La Mill Coffee, 1636 Silverlake Blvd.
- Silverlake architecture, history - including the remnants of the old Los Angeles mass transit system - and one of the most lovely stairways in the city.

11:30 AM: Lunch and Music
- At the Silverlake Recreation Center, 1850 W Silverlake Drive
- Live Music. The Official Ukelele Orchestra of the Western Hemisphere Performs at the Silverlake Rec Center!

        <title>Los Angeles - LA GRAN LIMPIEZA - 2011-04-30 - 09:00:00</title>
        <description>
***This event is on a Saturday***

I took part in this event last year and had a great time. Sadly I will not be able to join the fun this year, but you still can!

There are 12 locations for the cleanup.  I suggest the Los Feliz location, but feel free to attend any location.  Certainly, the Glendale Narrows stretch of the river (encompassing Los Feliz) is among the prettiest.  See the event website for details on the other locations.

Go to folar.org for more details and the release form.

        <description>Hike the Skirt!  (Note the time change.)

This will be a great day to wear your favorite skirt, kilt, towel, or toga.

Considering the number of hikers attending Tuxedo Tyrants or other events the night before, it seems best to push the hike back to the afternoon.
