janisj, loved your trip report. I had already heard a little about it (and received a postcard :) ) Thanks.

One quick question: will we be sorry that we drove from San Francisco to Garberville in one day with the idea of meandering back to Sonoma later in the week?

Hi :)

You <u>do</u> have a bit of a dilemma. Sure you should spend more time in your way up north, more time on your way back south, and more time in Garberville. But that would take a week and you just don't have that much time. Isn't the whole R-T just 4 or 5 days?

So don't second guess yourselves. Whatever you do will be wonderful - and you simply can't see everything. It just gives you <u>another reason to come back again :)
