ALL THE OCEAN HAS TO OFFER

SOLITUDE, PEACE, BEAUTY, AND FOOD!

The many treasures of the ocean

by Del Albright

There is always a magical moment the first time you get up close and personal with the ocean. Waves, birds, the smell, the sound of the surf, rocks, seashells, and sand all come together to enhance your feeling of well-being. I love it all.

Sometimes we just sit in a drift wood "fort" and enjoy the view while listening to the birds.

Sunsets at the beach are always special in the West.

And then there's the tide pools full of secrets and surprises.

We hope you find the time to spend some moments on the beach, enjoying the ocean.

Awesome.

Travel: Mendocino Coast of Northern CA --- awe inspiring

Mendocino Coast, CA





The Mendocino Coast of northern California is a magical place to visit and Stacie and I can attest to that first hand. We had a marvelous adventure there in July 2009 and here are some highlights to help you plan a trip. It's one of those "don't miss it" places.




For a marvelous time in Mendocino of the northern California coast, we can highly recommend the following businesses and fun activities.


Esterlina Winery with a marvelous Pinot Noir 2007; and Goldeneye Winery, Host of our tour reception night.

Joshua Grindle Inn where we found a new scale by which to measure B&B's -- this place is a treasure.

Liquid Fusion Kayaking with up close and personal water experiences.

Ricochet Ridge Ranch with Lari Shea -- horseback vacations and beach riding.

The truly fun and famous, Skunk Train.

Stacie and I spent a lovely time there and learned a lot about this marvelous coastal area. Mendocino is full of history, art, ocean and wonderfully friendly businesses who enjoy visitors.
