2011-10-09 Mendocino, California

My wife and I got out of the San Francisco Bay Area and took a break from our children (left them with their grandparents) and went to Mendocino, California. This town looks almost like a seaside village in New England. Just off season enough to be quiet without being empty. Beautiful town with ocean on three sides, great food and drink, wonderful walks or biking if you prefer, and for the adventurous: hiking outside of town into the rugged coastal hills.

Enjoy the slideshow. Click on it for full size and descriptions of the town.

Old growth Redwoods at Hendy Woods State Park, Mendocino County, California

We visited the Hendy Woods State Park in Mendocino County, California on a very rainy Columbus Day. Fortunately, rain and Redwoods just seem to go together. Old growth Redwoods are huge, towering, magnificent trees that reach well over 300ft tall.




My wife as a reference to get a sense of the scale of these Redwoods
