Hello again family, friends and everyone:
We spent our 4th of July week-end in the Mendocino - Fort Bragg area on California’s Northern Coast. We stayed at Grandma Edna’s home in Willits, CA as she was vacationing in Edmonton, Canada visiting Irwin and other family members. Holly and I had the place to ourselves, thanks for the free lodging Edna, we watered the plants and left the place in good repair.
We loaded our new truck (our old truck was stolen from the local K-Mart Shopping Center and recovered three months later) with our cross-over bikes and headed out to Mendocino County and three California State Parks. Our bikes are designed for moderate mountain terrain and street use.
On our first day out, Saturday, we headed for the Russian Gulch State Park (cost $6 per vehicle for entry and good at all California State Parks for the day), just two miles north of the seaside town of Mendocino.
What a great park this is, we came for the hiking and biking, but, there is also camp grounds, diving, fishing, kayaking and canoeing.
During our hiking and biking we traveled through the Fern Canyon to the 36ft
