I don't have many OCD tendencies, but I do like to keep a tidy trailer and a tidy campsite. Obviously, the look of an environment is important to me. I remember how my grandpa was about his sailboat: all the ropes (lines? sheets?) had to be coiled in nice perfect…

Today we went out to grab some lunch and on Kyle's recommendation we stopped in at The Boathouse for some fish & chips. They were great…good crunchy batter, good fish…although I did hear the guy at the counter tell another customer that the cod they're using right now came from…
Comments closedCrab for dinner last night, with a caesar salad and a bottle of 2010 La Cruz Vineyard Rosé from Keller Estate. The sunset from our campsite was lovely: I took this shot before we went to bed, but the tiki torches were still going when I got up at 2:30am for water.…
Comments closedWe just took a drive around the bay to get some fresh cooked crab at the Spud Point Crab Co. We picked up two bowls of clam chowder as well, and OMG it's the best clam chowder I've ever had. Ever. In my life. I'm not kidding. We smelled it…

5 CommentsToday for breakfast we made a version of eggs benedict with some of the leftover tenderloin on an english muffin topped with eggs, steamed spinach, tomato, hollandaise, a slice of avocado and some chives…it was pretty good! Patti went into town to do some shopping, and Jake and Kevin and…
2 CommentsThis afternoon we headed over to Sonoma for a little wine and cheese. We parked down near the plaza near Sonoma City Hall and walked around for a bit…stopped in at the Sonoma Cheese Factory and tasted some port from Sonoma Valley Portworks (bought some) and some cheese called Teahive…
1 CommentPatti finally got to hold a baby goat at the petting farm (they're two weeks old). She didn't even have to knock over any children to get her hands on one. Here's a shot of the very full campground. I tried, but I still haven't managed to capture JUST how…
Comments closedSo, we’re in Petaluma for the weekend. We wanted to meet up with our friends Jake & Patti (they live in San Diego) and they had plans to be in Jenner, CA the week before this weekend, so our choice for a meet up time was this weekend. Memorial Day…
1 CommentGorgeous drive today down 101. I drove the first part, Kevin drove the second part. We stopped for the night at Giant Redwoods RV Park in Myers Flat, CA, which apparently was very recently purchased by new owners (10 weeks ago). We followed the directions from 101 (it's just off…
