In honor of the Vernal Equinox “springing” tomorrow at 10:32 a.m. PDT and the predicted gorgeous SoCal weather go outside and enjoy it. I know you may be temped to stay inside and watch college basketball, but let’s be honest many of you probably already had a bracket buster yesterday … thanks for nothing Notre Dame and Georgetown. Although I’ll give you a pass if your team is playing ;).

In case you need some ideas … follow me after the jump

Head out to Dog Beach in Huntington Beach, with or without your pooch. This is my beloved Rollie at DB in 2006.

Take a walk along a portion of Orange County's 42 miles of coastline.

Take the kayak out for a spin.

Hang Ten!

Go fly a kite.

Ride your bike ... remember to wear your helmet. ALWAYS! Shame on me for not making him put it on for this staged photo.

Watch the sunset.

The annual Swallows Day Parade will also be happening in San Juan Capistrano on Saturday, March 20, 2010 at 10:00 a.m. The parade celebrates the legend of the return of the swallows to the San Juan Capistrano Mission.
