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.

JSF ROAD 450

It was rainy at the start of today's walk at Jackson State Forest Road 450 and the rain picked up as we walked. However this didn't stop a decent sized group of determined Fogdodgers. Hiking were John, Charlene, Eric, Nancy, Tom, Deb, Sam, Diana, Jeff, Shari, Toni, and Joe. And, to her credit, Fran showed up but decide to bail as the path was looking slippery.  In spite of the rain everyone seemed happy to have come.

After the walk 11 of us went to breakfast at the Homestyle Cafe amid rumors that it will be closing soon as the landlord is planning to raise the rent too much. In spite of the restaurant being crowded to the point that some of us had to park way down the street, the staff fairly quickly found a place for us and we all enjoyed a nice breakfast.

Here are John's photo for this week:
