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.

COASTAL TRAIL - NORTH

At Glass Beach it looked like it was going to be pretty wet, but turned out to be just a light sprinkle. Seven of us showed up and hiked south on the coastal trail. In attendance were Nancy, Tom, Deb, Sam, Charlene, Sky and Joe. It was good to get out in spite of all the rain we have been having. No one reported whales, though Toni saw several on a pelagic trip she took last Wednesday.

After returning to the parking lot at Glass Beach six of us added a bit more walking, going a few blocks up to Denny's at the corner for breakfast.

John did not make the hike "due to time and weather" but he did send some pictures to be added to the blog, including a couple of his ceramic sculptures:

 Sidewalk-Surfer-on-the-Downhill

Shadow-Boy

Skunk-Train (back when No 45 was running and the water tower was genuine)

Sunset- 2 Geese-Fort-Bragg



Kite-Girl

Juggling-Clown-on-octagon

NEXT SUNDAY, March 19 @ 8:00 A.M.: GROUP RUN/WALK/BIKE, COASTAL TRAIL - SOUTH (Taco Bell). If Toni makes it she will give us a short tour of the Crow's Nest. Look forward to that especially if you have not been there. Some interesting pinniped skeletons and the double deck tide pool aquarium. You can click on the "Our Routes" tab at the top to get directions, if needed.

EVERY TUESDAY AND THURSDAY, GROUP RUN/WALK @ 7:30 A.M.: COASTAL TRAIL - MIDDLE, behind the Fort Bragg Fire Station.
