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.

NAVARRO RIDGE ROAD


Navarro Ridge Road, J. Loomis photo

It had been a very long time since we'd been on Navarro Ridge Road.  Somethings, like the redwoods above haven't changed at all.  Other things, like the homes and lots nearer the ocean, seemed to change a lot.

Thanks to John for today's photos.  They're all from Navarro Ridge but taken yesterday, when the sun was out!   For us today, it foggy overcast, calm and 51 degrees.  Good for walking and running but not nearly as pretty.

Present today:  Shelly (had walked with us before), Suzanne, Henry, Nancy B., Rick, Mike, Toni, Joe, Nancy T., Roger, John, Cyd, Nancy and Tom (14).

I didn't go to the Grange's Pancake Breakfast but many of the others did and I bet it was good.  Nancy and I ate later at David's and it too was good.

Next week, we will go to one of our most popular venues, Big River.  It's usually pretty nice there but remember to bring the mosquito repellant if it's near or above 50.
