Although it’s exciting to travel far from home, we live so close to stunning scenery here in California. We packed up the car and headed to Mendocino for the Fourth of July weekend. Our primary goals were to enjoy nature, relax, and take a break from chores and projects at home.
We stayed at a charming, dog-friendly inn, went on long hikes, tried different restaurants, watched a small-town parade, and experienced fireworks over the Pacific Ocean. It was wonderful!
