Simplify Your Life

PatagoniaFor the local Southern Californians…have you seen the movie 180 Degrees South yet?

I saw the film and published a review when I saw it earlier this summer, and I would definitely recommend it! Now the Patagonia Santa Monica store is offering a free screening.

180° South explores this philosophy of simplifying our lives to further the world. It is a captivating and eye opening film, filled with adventure, surfing, rock climbing, mountaineering, and most importantly, a message about the future of our planet.

Enjoy!

$0.25 granola bars!

Nature Valley Granola barsI always get hungry when I hike. Perhaps that is because the average person burns 408 calories per hour when they hike!

Here’s a way I satisfy my hunger on the trail… Nature Valley Granola bars. My favorite flavors are Oats & Honey, and Crunchy Peanut Butter. Yum!

They’re currently on sale for $0.25 each! That compares to over a $1 each for many popular bars.

Granola bars don’t melt like some chocolate based bars, and they are very convenient to take along on a hike!

Happy hiking and snacking!
