Going Off Grid
Our 1st stop Penny Royal for a flight of whites and Pinot plus a serious cheese and charcuterie board, all out doors.
Stop #2, Roederer Estate. No visit to Mendocino on Route 128 happens without a stop here for bubbles. We timed it perfect on a beautiful day in November that almost required shorts.
Our first trip away off road, we booked Hendy Woods campground. We arrived at dusk and found our way to a perfect spot.
My first time to Hendy Woods and not my last, incredible trails lead you through massive Redwoods. And that's coming from someone who lives amongst the Redwoods.
Plus a very dry Navarro River.
The next thing on the very casual slow paced agenda, heading to the coast.
We bought some mussels and a baguette, our van already full of wine that we brought and purchased, we were set for the night.
If you're looking for an easy get away, camp style, trail Head Vans is great. New business in our area gives anyone from out of the area an opportunity to land and go. The Van was stocked with everything we needed other than food and drink. bedding, kitchen equipment, lights, chairs...you name it, they got it.
It's a different kind of travel, especially for a 15 year veteran 'Hotel Industry' person. Getting on the road and knowing you can stop where ever you like and picnic, sleep, tail gate or just nap, very cool. Highly recommend if you're looking for a way to road trip without committing to purchasing all the stuff, these guys have you set.
Give them a call, get off the grid.
cheers, till next time.
