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.

Ten Mile River - and Happy Father's Day

What a beautiful morning. What a joy.  I think all of us, maybe for different reasons, are all so thankful to be alive to enjoy the natural beauty of where we live and the wonderful friendship we all share.

We haven't been to Ten Mile for quite a while as it is quite a drive for many folks, however, it is a beautiful walk along the river, and mosquito free! When we started the sun was warm, though the air temp was about 45 deg and a slight mist over the hills, which you can just see in one of the photos.  The air temp must have risen rapidly as it was down to shirt sleeves on the way back.


We had a good turnout with 16 people, so I guess many others feel like me, Ten Mile is a great walk. 
The happy walkers this morning were, Rick & Nancy B., Mark & Gay who also brought their grandaughter Kyra, welcome back Pat & Leon, Cheryl & Neil, Charlene, Fran, Joe, Roger & Nancy T, and our 2 runners Ron & John.  You can see the blue sky and smiling faces in the photo John took of us all.

There's one other photo from our walk and one of some Totems that John found somewhere along Ten Mile.

Don't forget click a photo to see it fill the screen.
