The River

If there is a perfect summer day, its spent on the rocky banks of the Russian River.




Pack up a cooler and some towels. Bring along an old cotton dress to throw over your bathing suit if you want to stop in at the shops that dot the country road.


Spend the afternoon floating on the water. Watch your kids splash each other at the river's edge.  Read a book on the shore. Eat the strawberries that you bought from the stand down the way. Feel every moment of the day go by.

This sounds perfect! Now, if only my local rivers and streams had rolling hills around them... Looks like I haven't found my perfect place to live yet.

Hey Toni, if you ever come out to the Sonoma Valley you should take a day to spend by the river. You won't regret it.

We love relaxing along the Russian River. Actually, Guerneville was our first introduction to NorCal many, many years ago. Fifteen years later, here we are in SF, living the dream! So many beautiful places in the surrounding countryside.

Nora, my family loves Guerneville. We swing by Armstrong Woods for a little nature walk (very little as I am not a nature girl) and then go get a bottle or two from the Korbel cellars and spent the rest of the by the river. So good.

Mysti - Any time. Any time.
