So-Cal or vicinity Weekend ideas?

[notherhalo]

Ive decided to stop drinking (or at least make it a secondary goal) and started to wonder if there are other things to do in life, in Southern California.  Here is all I know:

• Lone Pine and onwards across the 395 camping..  big pine no2 lake, those hot springs an hour past Bishop and Tioga Pass (other good spots?)
• taking boat rides, like the one from Ventura to Mothers Beach
• Las Vegas isnt fun unless you really party hard, or are a boring person at heart
• check Eventbrite site/app and pray something is worthwhile going to (?)
• hiking/trails.....somewhere?
• archery / gun / golf ranges
• Ocean activities like spear fishing, surfing, or being a sponger

Thats all I can think of - What do you guys know?

I only know hiking, camping, benders in Vegas.  And sometimes golf.  So I might be able to help you there.

I guess you could do amusement parks.  But that's pricey.  

Do a foodie thing and pay for overpriced food from people who thinks their food is great.  

Museum stuff.  Getty, Broad, MOCA, Science museum, Petersson, Reagan, Huntington, Nixon.  Just to name a few.  There are plenty of smaller quality museums also.  Museums are so underappreciated in So Cal. 

Sporting events or you can ask M0nkey if Taylor Swift is in town.  

Oh and since you don't drink, strip clubs, since they don't let you drink in them.

And of course, watch Tank sing.

Go to the Aquarium of the Pacific... and bring a fishing pole to really have a good time. Be sure to ask where the bait shop is when you get inside.  Bring a lawn chair, a cooler and a BBQ.  Tell them you're doing a "catch and cook" video for YouTube.

Join a car club that has some cool events and tell them your vintage car is being worked on but you'll bring it next time.

I think this question hinges on what month you plan to visit?
