We stayed in the small town of Mendocino at the Agate Cove Inn. Our room was lovely, and we had a view of the Pacific ocean. If any of you remember the tv show "Murder, She Wrote", most of it was filmed here. The town has a very quaint, New England feel.

This is the view from the dining room. I think we sat there for about an hour, just watching the waves. The area across the road is part of a state park that stretches along the coast for several miles,which prevents a lot of development right on the coast. Earlier in the morning, we walked way out on the rocks you see, and saw some seals.

This had to have been the largest calla lily I have ever seen. It was easily as big as my hand. The owners had quite a variety of plants and flowers that they tended.
