What's in your own backyard?  Take a morning or afternoon to explore what you've missed in your own community.  Check out or even take a tour of an interesting building.  Is there a local ethnic festival coming up?  Learn about the history of your city and the people who live near you.  

I recently moved to a smaller city in the East Bay Area, about 30 minutes from San Francisco.  It's been fun taking walks exploring the 1950s suburban architecture and finding a secret path to the nearby state park.  One morning I discovered a Buddhist monastery tucked away at the top of a hill!  It is a beautiful place for rest and contemplation-- so close to my door! 

Discover something interesting about where you live and connect with your neighbors, the culture, and history of your surroundings!
