Three and a half hours north of San Francisco, we’re in California Redwoods country. In fact we’re staying at the Historic Benbow Inn & Resort. More accurately, we’re in the smallest campsite available at the Benbow KOA that’s part of the overall complex. Our site boasts the a branch of the Eel River as a backyard. Other sites are adjacent to the golf course and the historic inn is just a short walk away on the other side of the bridge. We walked over there a little while ago and perused the menu. It sounds intriguing and perhaps another night we’d be interested but this evening is for enjoying some quiet time, a good book, and a view of the East Branch South Fork Eel River.
Winter Magic in Medina
By deliberate choice we were in Medina for all the winter holiday festivities from Candlelight Walk in the days before Thanksgiving through A Christmas Carol and A Celtic Christmas as well as an Alex Bevan Concert and a historic house tour all the way through Medina’s 31st Ice Festival but perhaps the highlight was the town hosting hundreds of folks whose homes and lives were devasted by Hurricane Helene at the A Promise of Christmas Event the middle of January. It’s an honor to be a part of this amazing community!
