SoCal Living

Spring Break begins next week here in Southern California.  Families will be looking for things to do.  Therefore, instead of the normal Luminous Report I thought I would round up a few spring break articles to help us on our way. We are blessed to live in one of nations top states for tourism surely we can find a way to enjoy spring break.
