We are camped along the ocean on RT 1 at a state park/campground. The ocean is beautiful here but what a road to get here!! We left Brookings around noon, and traveled south on 101, taking a tour on Avenue of the Giants (an alternate road thru the redwoods, very narrow and windy). I think Norm breathed a sigh of relief when we got back on 101, but not for long, because I decided we would take RT 1 south next to the ocean. Well you guessed it, another steep windy road, only worse than the first one. If you can drive this road you could surely get a CDL.
We are now at Napa where I am excited about going to my favorite Sunday Brunch and Norm is patiently waiting for the massage school to open Monday. He gets one free massage per month at the school. Napa has grown a lot since we were here in 2001. There are 2 new bridges and many new apartment houses.
Well we went to brunch at Brix and it was a mixed blessing. They didn’t have the buffet any longer so I couldn’t have all those lushes’ deserts. Now that was probably a good thing for my waistline, and the french toast with bananas, raspberries, strawberries, and hazelnuts was really good. Norm went riding around the hills of Sonoma looking for a hot springs he had remembered seeing last time. We didn’t find it but we enjoyed the ride, and we found a fall festival in the park at Sonoma. There was Mexican music and food and crafts. I think they were celebrating Mexican Independence, Couldn’t understand a word. Wish I could.
