When I took a shower they went to the store.  It felt so good after three days of not having one. When they arrived back I had my typical breakfast of Raisin Bran, but this time topped with nutty trail mix. It was good in a Califronia way.<\/p>\n<p>Our adventure of the day was to go see the coast. On the way there I got to see O&#8217;Reilly where Justin previously worked. The weather was clear, but on the coast it was very very windy. On the way we stopped at a few turn-outs to enjoy the scenic beauty of the Pacific.<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1fifoto.com\/weblog\/images\/SaltPointStatePark1.jpg\"\/><\/center>We planned to hike at a state park called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.parks.ca.gov\/?page_id=453\">Salt Point<\/a>. When we arrived there weren&#8217;t any trail maps. So Stephanie and Justin used the next best thing, a digital photograph. This came in handy several times during the hike to figure out where we were.<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1fifoto.com\/weblog\/images\/SaltPointStatePark3.jpg\"\/><\/center>I&#8217;m glad I bought my walking stick with me. It helped to catch me when I stumbled across the rock outcroppings and to prop me up against the constant onslaught of that wind.<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1fifoto.com\/weblog\/images\/SaltPointStatePark2.jpg\"\/><\/center> <\/p>\n<p>Afterwards instead of driving the coastal road, Stephanie drove the Fort Ross road over the mountain. It was a very twisty narrow road. One time we had to stop and pull off the road to let another car by. We stopped and ate a restaurant called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dawnranch.com\/dining.htm\">Dawn Ranch Lodge<\/a> in Guerneville. Surprisingly it was my Christmas present. Justin reminded me that he had never given me a Christmas present and had promised that if I had come out he would take me to the Oyster Bar in San Francisco. Well his debt has been repaid with a good dinner with local wine, dessert, and late harvest wine. Needless to say when we arrived home I set up my bed (aero-bed and sleeping bag in the middle of his living room) and was out for the count.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I again woke up early, but sat and worked on my computer doing miscellaneous things until the others awoke.
