Great Escapes! Pt. Reyes Pit Stops

Pt. Reyes Pit Stops ~  Groceries on the Go When people ask me about the best day trips from the Bay Area, I always mention Pt. Reyes. The natural beauty alone is well worth the drive but to make things even sweeter, don't forget to pull over at the various produce stands along the way!   Grocery shopping en route...Weigh your produce and place your money in a box on the front table. All payments are based on Trust! Don’t you just love it!

Great Escapes! Kayaking

Image
  Great Escapes! Many of us stuck in our homes are bursting to take trips which is challenging during this COVID phase of our lives. I have some good suggestions for you - How about day trips to explore adventures on the water? Kayaking — try Watertrek Eco tours in Jenner. You'll be greeted by a lovely staff - you can rent kayaks and cruise along the mouth of the Russian River in a very safe and protected cove. It is  located across the street  from Cafe Aquatica with delicious organic meals overlooking the river.  You can also join a Napa River kayak tour with a guide and fellow kayakers (beginners welcome!)
