We drove the 23 miles to Shelter Cove, hoping to see some sea lions. It was an interesting drive through redwoods, then snow, until the road wound us back down to the ocean's edge. Shelter Cove is a small community with lots of houses of all sizes, but not much in the way of businesses. I think we saw one espresso place, a small grocery store, and that's it. Lots of property for sale which I wouldn't rush out and buy. Of course, California, earthquakes, tsunami...sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.

One the way back to the motorhome we stopped in Del Rio for lunch at the 101 Cafe. Awesome cheeseburger! Then we hit the hail storm, brrr.
