We felt the same way about Bodega Bay while our kids were growing up. Now they're about the same age as yours and last year we decided to move to Bodega Bay. It's been a big change but wonderful living here in this paradise on the coast!<br /><br />~Kathlene<br />www.BodegaBayLife.comKathlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16042192326553772692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5571749075036803790.post-14606550187771731812009-04-22T14:23:00.000-07:002009-04-22T14:23:00.000-07:00Beautiful...I could walk the trail under the trees...Beautiful...I could walk the trail under the trees for hours.Alicia @ boylerpfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494653464202092752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5571749075036803790.post-8664126770122554632009-04-22T12:11:00.000-07:002009-04-22T12:11:00.000-07:00what a scene...its so beautiful...wish i were ther...what a scene...its so beautiful...wish i were there...~Yunzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16694526183164547833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5571749075036803790.post-32176834544504368572009-04-22T09:24:00.000-07:002009-04-22T09:24:00.000-07:00Love the pictures thanks for sharing.

I think I mentioned Timber Cover Lodge which is south of there on the Sonoma Coast. We stayed there years ago and loved it. Had planned to travel up to Sea Ranch but couldn't leave the Lodge. I understand it's had a makeover of some magnitude. When we went, it had old gigantic fiberglass hot tubs in the rooms (very Seventies) and balaconies with barrel style hot tubs overlooking the sea from the cliffs. Their restaurant was one of the best I've ever enjoyed. We went inland from there to a very chi chi place (name escapes me) for a gourmet multi course meal and it did not compare. Sea Ranch sounds wonderful and I am happy to see photos.California Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12582691517303132274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5571749075036803790.post-11963249064222686542009-04-22T04:15:00.000-07:002009-04-22T04:15:00.000-07:00What a delightful blog you have here.
