Usually when people visit Orange County in California they spend time at Disneyland, Knott’s Berry Farm, The Aquarium of the Pacific, and/or take in an Angels baseball game. Sometimes they spend three or four days there and see little but the inside of the Convention Center. But if a person is fortunate enough to have residents take them to see the sights, they can get a whole different view of the area.
You learn that snails go for a walk after the rain...
even though they only have one foot. And if you touch them...
they go home; no matter where they are.
Mushrooms grow big in wet weather.
REALLY big.
There are lots of amazing rocks that are worth carrying for a block or two until you find a cool flower.
Stuff falls out of the trees...
...like poky chestnuts...
and bumpy pine cones.
Crossing guards hold out their arms when they walk across the street. They carry a stop sign, but a stick is a good substitute.
