Manchester KOA to Stillwater Cove Park
 |
| Monday - September 13 We started the morning with some garden art. |
 |
| This part of the coast is looking a bit drier. We elected to not ride down this road to the Point Arena Lighthouse though it would have put us as close to Hawaii as you can get on the West Coast. |
 |
| There were quite a few boats out in the kelp beds. They looked pretty little from here. You might have to make the picture big to be able to see them above Donna's left shoulder. |
 |
| Inching ever closer to SFO. |
 |
| Natural art |
 |
| Architectural art |
 |
| A little humorous "art" to prepare us for lunch at the Bones Roadhouse Bar and Grill in Gualala. They had really good clam chowder. Even better was their pulled pork. We got a half pound to go for our dinner tonight....hurray for our insulated pannier! We found a Wifi hotspot in a deli/bakery close by and mailed the ski patrol newsletter while having dessert. |
 |
| An artistic outhouse. This was in the middle of the 10 mile Sea Ranch stretch. All the side roads off the highway are private and these little parks are the only beach access through this area. |
 |
| This sign did not entice us to go walk on the beach. |
 |
| Time for ice cream....gastronomic art! |
 |
| Mechanical art - This Triumph TR-6 was all aluminum, even the seats. The guy who built it was quite the craftsman with metal. He has built an airplane too. |
 |
| The store was built in 1868 and still has the original wooden floors and displays lots of antiques. Their selection of food was equally impressive for essentially being located in the middle of almost nowhere. |
 |
| A very interesting tricycle. |
 |
| We stopped in Ocean Cove to get breakfast food and some corn to go with the pulled pork. |
 |
| The Stillwater Cove Park was only another mile but it was a climb and we were hungry so it seemed a lot longer. Dinner and a warm shower improved things considerably. The hiker/biker site was pretty full so we opted for a regular site for the night. It was very quiet...... |
 |
| ....except for the peacocks wandering around, which ended up being our sound of the day. |
 |
| Today's miles = 45.8 Total miles = 343.9 |
