Fedoras afield

My fishing trip on the Smith River didn’t work out due to lack of rain (the river closes to fishing if the flow isn’t high enough). I salvaged the trip by taking my wife on a pre-anniversary trip to Brookings Oregon, Crescent City California, Arcata California, and Eureka California. I went to college in Arcata and we lived in Eureka when we got married.

I work around Yosemite National Park, but the coastal Pacific Northwest gets my vote for the most beautiful part of the country.

Mrs. quik, Lovin' that California Coast!

We spent the weekend in Bodega Bay, CA where Alfred Hitchcock did the classic horror movie The Birds.

Super, Brent. I dated a woman from Brookings for about a year. The weekend trips down from the Portland area were long, but quite scenic.

This afternoon, Monica and I took a walk to the west, using the old cart tracks that ran along the ridge of the hills from east to west and vice versa

The road, wide enough to let a small wagon pass, starts from the end of one of the oldest agglomerations of houses in the village where I live

Its name in ancient dialect is "Gazo" which means shady grove. The driveway runs between two walls that mark the properties cultivated with olive trees

You then come to skirt a large vineyard facing south, with Verona and the plain in the horizon

and then descending in the small valley adjacent to another vineyard and another ancient village

We then returned eastwards from another steep road only for pedestrians from which we embarked on the way back along these splendid autumnal landscapes

In the valley, under the wineyard you see a church tower, this is the place where I live

For the occasion I had a Borsalino "Rutenio" on my head

These are the paths of my childhood that I learned with my beloved grandfather Edoardo

We have many heritage railways, mostly branch lines that were rescued from closure by enthusiasts. It's always a memorable day travelling on a steam hauled train. Better still when it's with like minded friends:
