"Bucket List"

Recently, we had a gentleman check into the Beachcomber and when I asked him if he had ever stayed with us; he stated that he had not and this visit was on his Bucket List! For all of you who don't know what a bucket list is: things that one does before one dies.
It made me wonder, "how many other guests have a bucket list"? And, are we on your bucket list?

This blog is from a baby boomer beachcomber nut that needs to start her own bucket list! :=)

Jug Handle State Natural Reserve is located on the Mendocino coast. The park features a 2.5-mile self-guided nature trail called The Ecological Staircase which explores five wave-cut terraces formed by glacier, sea and tectonic activity that built the coast range. The Reserve is located on the north coast of California about equal distance (five miles) between Fort Bragg and Mendocino.
