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.

CASPAR LOGGING ROAD

Happy Easter! For our traditional Easter Egg Run/Walk, we met at the Caspar Logging Road. It was a little cool, 39 degrees but otherwise a beautiful morning. Present were: Jeff, John, Bob, Charlene, Ron, Nancy B., Rick, Laurie, Toni, Larry, Orah, Steve, Tom T., Gay, Mark, Nancy T., Roger, Johnny, Nancy and Tom (20).



Starting out straight up Road 500, it didn't take long to figure out that something wasn't right, that the Easter Bunny hadn't been here. In the past, eggs have always been plentiful right from the start. So, after a few hundred yards we turned around, returned to the starting point, and then checked out the parallel bike trail. Eggs everywhere!! I don't know if the Easter Bunny had a helper this year or what but he left behind many, many eggs! It was really a good trail to have an Easter Egg hunt on and I think all had a good time.

Thanks to John L. for the photo. He sent others but I can't get them in here for some reason.

NEXT SUNDAY, 4/15/12 @ 8:00 A.M.: Big River Logging Road (Ron Jahelka Trail) because the forecast calls for showers just about every day this week.

EVERY TUESDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: RUSSIAN GULCH STATE PARK, beginning on Point Cabrillo Drive, 1/10 of a mile north of its south end.

EVERY THURSDAY @ 7:00 A.M.: VAN DAMME STATE PARK, beginning at the beach.
