If it's bologna sandwiches, it's our anniversary. A few days on the coast of CA and headed North.

 Monday September 16th we left home around 0700 to head to the CA coast. It was our 52nd wedding anniversary and we were headed to a tiny house at Dillon Beach for 2 nights. 

We arrived around noon, checked in at the store and got our pass for the beach. It was an absolutely beautiful day! The best you can ask for at the beach! Beautiful blue skies, no wind and temps in the mid 60's! 

Got our lawn chairs out, took lunch down to the sand and enjoyed the afternoon. Somewhere around 1330 I made us some bologna sandwiches and believe me they were awesome! Wine, beer and barbecued chips completed the lunch! ๐Ÿท๐Ÿบ About 1530 we left and checked into our cute little house. 

Happy Anniversary! Bologna sandwiches never taste
so good as on September 16th! ๐Ÿ’™



I had made chicken at home, bought potato salad for Ken and salad for me for our dinner for a couple of nights. Perfect. 

Tuesday morning took our time getting ready and had a nice homemade breakfast. Then we  headed back to the beach for the day. A little cooler but still very nice. Once the wind picked up headed back up to the tiny house. It had a nice little porch so we sat out there and enjoyed our adult beverages. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

Thank you Chloe for telling me about these tiny homes!
It was perfect! The bed and bedding were incredible! 

Just perfect! 


Finally using my glass I bought probably 3 or 4 years ago

Waves were perfect, lots of surfers out there. 

This morning we again took our time and left about 1040 to head not quite 160 miles to Fort Bragg, CA. Haven't been in years. It's a beautiful drive but lots of road work going on which is a good thing. We stopped at Point Arena Lighthouse to have our linner. The last of the bologna sandwiches for another year. ๐Ÿ˜ฅ We were hoping to sit at a picnic table, but it was cold and windy so we opted for our white trash lunch in the car LOL!!

Point Arena lighthouse. They have a tour that goes up.
All spiral staircase, don't think that's for me 
anymore. 

Our view for lunch. 


We arrived here about 1630 and got checked in to the motel. A Days Inn, very nice and even a kitchenette, but we don't have anything to cook. Oh well. 

We were hoping to ride the rail bikes tomorrow, but they're booked. So instead looks like we're going horseback riding on the beach for an hour or so. An adventure for us. ๐Ÿ˜€ We'll leave here Friday morning and head north. Not sure where we'll end up, just know we're going up the coast for a bit  ๐Ÿ˜Š

Have a great evening! ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿท๐Ÿ’–

    1. Love our bologna once a year for a few days. Honestly I could eat it daily, but then it wouldn't be special! :)
