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.

Pudding Creek Trestle

Due to my gullibility, Nancy B conned me into writing this blog.  As I already had my Sunday planned, I apologize for the tardiness of this blog.

The fog was quite thick this morning with an air temperature of 52 degrees.  The ocean was very calm and because of the cloud cover, the beaches were pretty empty except for a few brave souls.

Pudding Creek is being held in by a sand bank, so it’s not flowing out to the ocean. But did you notice how full of water the basin under the trestle has become. Pudding Creek east of the trestle was clear of algea and other crud that normally makes it look quite uninviting.

Nancy B. also promised to send me a list of attendees (Nancy, you're now in my little book!), so here's my best guess. There was Nancy B, Rick, Joe, Nancy T, Roger, Peter, Charlene, Ron, Bruce, Susan, John and a couple of late arrivals, whose names I don’t know, sorry.

A group of 10 of us had breakfast at David’s.
