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.

Sunday March 12, 2017

We had a lovely group today. I counted fourteen today. The weather was very accommodating and by the time we had turned around the sun was shining and we were able to take off some of our clothing. We had one four-footed runner/walker also thanks to Tom T.

Early morning photo of Big River looking out toward the Highway One Bridge on a rainy day.

I have been hiking a lot around the coast and taking photos of the fallen trees, broken bridges in Van Damme, Russian Gulch and Jug Handle. But I hadn't hiked Big River so I didn't have any photos to share today.

Can't see the seals, but they were right near the tip of 

the spit in the estuary of this photo.


All  photos are from John Loomis whose photos had been posted on other days. So we have a nice selection for this week's posting.

Daylight Savings Time is a misnomer. There were 11 hours and 45 minutes of daylight time in Mendocino today. Standing on your head or turning the hands of the clock around will never change that. DST = Disruptive sleep time.
