Le Boeuf sur le Toit and The Road to Bodega

You'll know you're on the right road out of Petaluma if you spot this cow on the roof.  Across from the "Petaluma Creamery" - a must-stop for ice cream as per our host! The road will wind through golden hills and dairy farms until..... you reach the shore road and this intersection. You'll have OPTIONS!  South, North and sur place!  (More high elevation cows a continuing theme.) There is a lovely outside seating/eating area (as well as in) if you want to have lunch and a nice glass of wine at the Marin Sun Farms Restaurant and Butcher Shop.  (Sean Thackrey is kind of a local, and wine celeb). We took the road north to Bodega Bay. Ahhhhh yess.......the California coast. Blood pressure dropping? A gorgeous stop for a long walk.  To fill your lungs with perfect clean air..... swimming - probably in the wet suit that you've brought along. The road will then take you back inland to Bodega, (in my previous post) A good place to stop for a drink. At a classic old-school American beer hall. That holds a few surprises too.  See my next post!

There is nothing not to like in this very gorgeous part of Northern California.  (IMHO).  More soon.
