We love our summer weekend getaways! And in order to make the most out of these weekend hours, we keep a running list of places to journey to, discover and enjoy. With so many neat things to do near or not too far from Southern California, we welcomed Los Angeles Magazine's "LA - Z Weekend Getaway" list!

Highlighting 25 amazing mini-holiday ideas, this fun and eclectic list of trips offers something for everyone and is a resourceful planning tool. Why not get collect folk art from around the world in Sante Fe, go horseback riding in Santa Barbara or watch the sun set behind the Red Rocks? Each of these ideas can be a great weekend getaway!



Having just gotten back from Moab (hiking trip through Utah), I can highly recommend Arches as well as the Sorrel River Ranch in the article. Beautiful setting - right on the Colorado River, nestled in between buttes that blaze red as the sun sets... a little taste of heaven.
...though that photo, I hasten to add, is of Delicate Arch :)
