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.

LAKE CLEONE



When Nancy and I arrived at lake Cleone the carpark was empty.  Had we misread this weeks meeting place?  So we drove past the car park and I took this picture of lake Cleone.  What a beautiful morning. Then John came along quietly and took a photo of me "Caught in the Act"!


In spite of the warm sun and blue ocean, we didn't have a lot of folks with us this morning. However, what was great, was to have Neil back walking with the Fog Dodgers, now that he's well down the road of recovery after his recent, serious illness (see Neil's blog here ) .

So today's walkers/runners were John, Joel, Fran, Pat & Leon, Neil & Cheryl, Roger & Nancy along with our grandson Logan, who's mother sent him to us for 2 weeks of excitement in Fort Bragg!  Here's a photo of Neil and my grandson Logan, and behind them you can see the always inspiring blue Pacific Ocean.  Not being interested in listening to Neil and I yakking on, Logan with his eagle eye saw a whale spout, and we stopped and saw quite a few spouts very close to the shore.

Pat and Leon had their last Fog Dodgers walk before heading home week - so bon voyage, and see you both next year.
