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.

The In-Between (Small Bus. Sat. & Cyber Monday) Run/Walk

It was a beautiful Fall morning around the Caspar Creek watershed.  Clear blue skies and about 40 degrees with no wind, seemed to work for everybody.  Some went uphill and some went downhill at the start and all seemed happy and talkative.


Applesauce time, J. Loomis
Present today, at least to the best of my memory and eyesight were:  Suzi, Fran, Barbara, Gay, Mark, Nancy T., Roger, Bob, Joel, John, Tom T., Linda, Charlene, Ron, Geri, Melissa, Nichole, Cheryl, Greg, Nancy and Tom (21).

Yes, in just two weeks (12/15), we will have our annual (I think?) Christmas Potluck Breakfast and Cookie Exchange.  You can bring any kind of breakfast dish that you'd like, or a beverage, hot or cold.  We'll have an oven and microwave if you need to re-warm something.  Cookies are great and make for a great exchange thing, if you want to participate.  You bring a plate full of cookies, leave those here for others and take home a plate full of mixed cookies that others have brought.  One very important rule though, don't leave any cookies behind when you leave!  Someone around here has no will power!

It will be at Nancy and Tom's this year.  If you don't know the way, just try to follow someone, or ask me while at the run/walk.  Roger is going to pick the location to meet for the walk/run.  We will supply the service ware, coffee, tea, champagne, orange juice and mimosas.

NEXT SUNDAY, DEC. 8TH @ 8:00 A.M.: JACKSON STATE FOREST, ROAD 450, about two miles east, going up Simpson Lane.  See "Our Routes" above.

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.
