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 Redwoods, J. Loomis photo
We returned to Navarro Ridge Road after a long absence.  It was, as we all remembered, hilly and beautiful.  I think it was 41 degrees at start time with a slight breeze and mostly sunshine.  John's photo above shows how the fog forms in the river canyons.

The photo above, shows how pretty the road is as it goes thru some very large second growth redwoods.


There's almost always some wildlife to catch your attention and then there's the old barns and farms.


Only eight of us could make it this morning, but we enjoyed it enough that I think we won't stay away so long from now on.  The Grange volunteers made us feel welcome and it's hard to beat an $8 breakfast!


Present today, John, Nancy T., Deb, Sam, Joe, Bob, Nancy and Tom (8).

We will have our annual pot luck breakfast on Dec. 15th.  It will be at the Riley's.  You can bring anything edible or drinkable, or if you can't do that, just come!
