Weekend Getaway!

After two full weekends of moving my office I decided the only way William and I would get any rest and relaxation would be to go out of town. We left on Friday after work and traveled to Arcata and stayed at the Quality Suites Inn. Saturday met up with some friends (from Redding who we haven't seen in quite some time) in Trinadad and spent the day driving up the coast spending some time at Patricks Point (Agate Beach & Wedding Rock) and another beach access area. Took the coastal road into just south of Crescent City to Klamath. After spending the day at the beaches we had a nice fish dinner in Trinidad. The weather was WONDERFUL!! Sunday we got up and decided we would take Hwy 36 from Fortuna to Cottonwood home. That is one crazy curvey road!!! Took us 4.5 hours to get home and only used a quarter tank of gas ... don't think we went over 45 mph at any given time. Nice thing about the weekend - motel room was FREE (William earns motel points due to his tremendous amount of time he spends at motels) Best thing about the weekend - spending quality time with my hubby.

I took Hwy 36 one time. Promised myself never again.
