Sonoma

vroom

Take out your frustrations with our maddening traffic and push your foot down hard on the accelerator at the Sonoma Raceway Racing School. On California’s longest track you can drive your own car learning safety and professional driving techniques, test out F-3 racing machines, even take a spin at Go Karting. Prices start at $495. […]

gold rush

Now that the coastal fog has (hopefully) lifted and the evenings have not gotten too wintry you might want to consider kayaking along our version of Scotland, the rugged Sonoma Coast located 20 miles from Guerneville where the Russian River makes a final dive into the Pacific. Sunset Kayaking Tours offers 5-hour two-person adventures plus a […]

purple haze

Follow your nose this weekend for the final, fragrant days of lavender season at the Sonoma Lavender Barn in Kenwood near Chateau St.Jean. Its five acres of 7,000 plants are available for you to cut your own bouquets. In their Market find hundreds of lavender products at 20-50% off. Open 12-4. Mildly scientific research indicates the […]

Events include a Blessing of the Olives Ceremony at the Sonoma Mission, an olive comedy night, a martini contest, […]

july jaunt

Bay seniors might want to move Shiloh Ranch State Park near Windsor in Sonoma County up towards the top of their list of Great Local Trails. Its 850 acres are mostly shaded and rolling, especially the Pond Trail to the top of Shiloh Ridge. The steeper Ridge Trail leads to Cinerama views from Healdsburg to […]

coastal carnival

Bay seniors feeling overwhelmed by the varieties of autumnal merrymaking might want to consider heading up the coast to Fort Ross. The Harvest Festival there on October 18 is a curious mix of native American, Russian and Sonoma traditions. Beginning with songs, dances and apple picking in the historic orchard it moves on to cider […]
