The road to the south and the Lost Coast. Check out Honeydew,CA on Google Earth for the pot plantations. It's a quiet and the general store has been in several movies. Don't stay long.
It's a great place to go in the heat of the summer as it will be cool. It will be a little cooler in the winter. It might not rain.
Boat race? BOAT race? BOAT RACE?!?!
Sir, I'll have you know the Kinetic Sculpture Race is a local all terrain vehichle, people powered, artistic as all getout, race on road, sand, mud, and sea! It is SO much more than a BOAT race!
