Today we headed down the Drury Cheney Trail. This was a beautiful trail about 2.2 miles round trip. It didn’t seem that long because the trail was nicely maintained, the scenery was spectacular, and the weather was perfect. The trail winds continuously through the giant trees surrounded with bright green ferns and clover. Much of the trail followed a nice creek.
After the trail we decided to visit Ferndale. Ferndale is a historical Victorian downtown. Kind of pretty but not much there really. We, ate at the Farmhouse restaurant. The food was tasty but seemed not a great value. It as much fancier than Donna and I care for. Right next door to the restaurant was a pet wash. We decided Maverick needed washing and took advantage of the self-wash option. Maverick looked great afterwards. On the way back to the coach we stopped at the Fortuna Riverwalk. The riverwalk is just a well prepared trail following the Eel River and we enjoyed a short walk.
