Goodbye Vallejo
Friday, June 11th
Today we said goodbye to Vallejo and hello to Mendocino County, CA. It was a spectacular drive along CA Hwy 1. We had previously driven the better known section of CA 1 from Morro Bay thru Big Sur to San Francisco (1989 trip w/ Ashley & Berri) and it was outstanding. MA & I believe that the section from Bodega Bay to Mendocino was equally outstanding! We stopped at a roadside inn at Jenner for a great lunch. Mendocino is a seaside village of several hundred people that has served as the filming location for MANY movies and TV shows. Outside scenes from Murder, She Wrote were shot in Mendocino (California, not Maine as the show would have you believe). The Russians are Coming, East of Eden, Summer of '42 and dozens more we shot on location in this tiny village. This pic is taken from the beach across the road from our campground.
