Colombi Market & Deli

Near our hotel was the market and deli...

which was part of the motel. We checked in (the ladies there were a hoot by the way) before catching our breath in our room...

Glass Beach, Fort Bragg

A mere ten minutes north of Mendocino is the town of Fort Bragg...

which has a very special beach we wanted to visit...

Moody's Organic Coffee Bar + the Mendocino Masonic Hall

We'd bought a few chocolates next door at the Mendocino Chocolate Company...

Chocolate tastes better with coffee, so our next recourse would be at the next door coffee bar...

Mendocino Chocolate Company

We were at a different town every day of our road trip. From Point Arena, we made our way to Mendocino...

A quaint seaside town reminiscent of Cape Cod.  More on the building above later...

This would be a short rest stop before gearing up for where we would later spend the night...

We're not big into antiques, but we do like our chocolate and there was a shop here calling our name...

Beautiful views + the Pgymy Forest @ Van Damme State Park -

Meanwhile, at another rest stop up the coast...

we added more miles to our teenaged car as we made our way up...

Day 3 - Summer Road Trip - Goodbye Ocean Cove Lodge

It's the return of the summer road trip posts. While I still have 2014 posts on the qeue, I thought I'd finish some of last summer...

which brings us back to Day 3. Our view from our room before heading up to see the redwoods...

Potter Schoolhouse, "The Birds" filming location

After our awesome lunch from the Marshall Store & Oyster Bar, we headed back out onto the scenic Hwy 1...

where more cows were seen grazing happily.

We were on our way to a small town in Sonoma County...

Summer Road Trip 2015 - Day 3 Highlights

While at a hokey gift store up the 1, we saw a postcard that had a picture of a stretch of the windy highway with the caption, "Dramamine Road"!

They really weren't kidding about that!  We made sure to each take our pills before hitting the road again...
