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.

GLASS BEACH to WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT

Where's Joe?  No Joe today, so I'll give this a try.  I could fill the page with photos from John, I guess, but no John today.  

We walked, well, all except Bob C, he ran, from Glass Beach parking lot, to the south in the fog and overcast, almost to the sewer plant.  By the time we turned around the sun had burned through and most jackets became tied around waists.  Nine of us had breakfast at Denny's afterwards.

Oh, I've found a photo of John's to make this blog look better:

                       Navarro Ridge Road (a little further up the road than we made it last week)

And, a couple of photos of mine taken at Glass Beach.


There is still a good amount of white or colorless glass but sadly, most of the red, blue or green glass is gone. 

Meanwhile, John has contacted me and submits the following photos.








Present today:  Kim, Doug, Gary, Kelly, Barbara, Sky, Eric, Charlene, Diana, Jeff, Bob, Zelda, Nancy and Tom (14).

There is a lot of rain in this week's forecast or else I would choose Big River.  I think we may be past mosquito season.  Instead, I'm choosing Point Cabrillo Lighthouse.  It's paved but won't take you an hour, so you may have to do it once and then double back for a bit.  This is chosen to keep our walk near St. Anthony's Pancake Breakfast.

NEXT SUNDAY, NOV. 9TH @ 8:00 A.M.: GROUP RUN/WALK/BIKE,  POINT CABRILLO LIGHTHOUSE.  There's a parking lot just above the lighthouse and on Point Cabrillo Drive.  We will start from that lot.

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