West Coast blogging - day 10 & 11
OK, it's just getting too nuts to try and keep up with everything that we've been doing in the limited time we've got on-line. Not to mention that there's so much more to do in the few days we've got left here.
Tuesday and Wednesday we went up and down the coast to Ft. Bragg (about 8 miles north of Mendocino) and back. Going up, we tasted beer; coming back, we tasted wine. (Mendocino Brewing, Anderson Valley Brewing, and North Coast Brewing up; Simi, Husch, and Brutocao vineyards on the way down.)
I'm sure most of you really want to know how my fantasy soccer team, The Dependables, are doing, anyway. First place in the local Durham league, thank you, and back up into about the top 2200 out of 1.5 million in the overall standings. That's in the EPL league. In the Guardian league, not so good. Only in the top third, out of about 80,000.
Here's a photo essay of the past two days, in roughly chronological order. Captions to follow, maybe tomorrow.

Since 1949, Durhamites have slept soundly, secure in the knowledge that, in our town, erection can be depended upon. Now, thanks to the power of the internets, we can spread that security all over the world.

I'm really enjoying all your photos. I've only driven through this part of CA, but remember it as very pretty.
