This was a cute little spotâand as you can see in the photos, I was hard at work looking for chairs that my heroine, Amber, might have picked up if sheâd been in Duncanâs Mills. OohâŠroad trip? UmâŠsorry. Not this book. đ
Back in the car, we headed west to Landâs EndâŠwhich happens to be Jennerâa sweet little town nestled into the hills where the Russian River meets the ocean.
Highway 1 travels the length of the California coast, and as with a lot of highways in California, itâs a âwork-in-progress.â The traffic stops were a great way to take in the cool breeze, chat with the locals (sea gulls) and view the interesting âsea stacksâ along this stretch of ocean. Twelve miles later we pulled into Fort Ross.
If youâre a history buff, you might enjoy exploring this Russian outpost established in 1812 by the Russian-American Company. Thereâs a great history center that gives you some background before you check out the actual buildingsâcomplete with cannons. Paul was fascinated by the fortâs construction and size of the timbers used.
