The Fog Dodgers invite all residents and visitors of the Mendocino Coast to join us on our weekly group runs and walks. We have runners and walkers of all abilities (and even some bikers) and we have only one "rule" - we start at exactly 8:00 a.m. on Sundays. Exercise at your own pace (1/2 hour out, 1/2 hour back) and experience the fresh Mendocino coastal air.

Fog Dodgers provides a fun, safe way to explore some of our local trails and back roads and to meet new friends. You can find out where we're going to be by reading the bottom of last week's post, then clicking on the "Our Routes" tab above. We average 15-20 persons each Sunday and typically half will go to breakfast together afterwards at a nearby restaurant.

PUDDING CREEK TRESTLE

A nice change this morning, rain!  It's a start and hopefully it signals a more normal winter for us.  We started Standard Time today but with the cloud cover, it was still pretty gloomy at 8:00 but a nice 59 degrees with a steady rain.

Those that came out to welcome the rain and enjoy the morning were:  Susan, Bruce, Zelda, Joel, Bob, Toni, Joe, Charlene, Ron, Nancy and Tom (11).

There's a couple of noteworthy dates below.  On Dec. 1st, the South half of our new Coastal Trail officially opens.  So, on Dec. 6th, we will give it a try.  If you're not familiar with it, check the "our routes" tab above.

On Dec. 13th, we will have our Annual Fog Dodger Holiday Pot Luck Breakfast and Cookie Exchange.  Mark and Gaye are hosting it and also including a special Open House tour of their new addition.  I'm intentionally underplaying this for secrecy reasons, you really do not want to miss this morning.
