Hiking Runyon Canyon and to The Hollywood Sign

By Wendy
Sunday, January 19th, 2014

Runyun Canyon

I’m tired!

Since arriving in LA four days ago I have hiked three hours through Runyon Canyon, six miles through my neighborhood to and around the Hollywood Reservoir, and just today, a two-mile trip up, up, up to the Hollywood Sign and back down again. Whew! I simply can’t get enough of the constant sunshine, perfect temperatures, and abundance of outdoor activities and sightseeing this city offers.

I’m absolutely, positively, indisputably, unequivocally in LOVE with LA! I feel like my whole life has been leading up to this point. I feel like I’ve arrivedΒ home for the first time ever and that’s huge for me: I hardly ever feel a sense of home in my gypsy soul. I believe from the moment I made the tough decision to walk away from a life that was no longer serving me and begin to look deep inside my heart, I have evolved into the woman I am today: a woman unafraid; happy; blissful; grateful, a woman ready to go after her dreams, a woman in love with life! I wake up every morning with a bounce in my step, not tears in my eyes! What a transition I have made over the past eight months. Even I am amazed what all is possible if one truly follows one’s heart: you feel unstoppable. And you feel rewarded. God wants us to be happy, to follow our bliss, and the reward for doing so must be how I’m feeling right now.

Often I'd show up at the studio not knowing any details about the filming.
