Couple's 5th Anniversary - Road Trip: Northern California Coast

An April 2006 trip to California by CoupleTravels

Redding to Eureka

Arby's

Restaurant

Quote:
Arby's! Boy has Jason missed their Roast Beef sandwiches.

We came here just for those Roast Beef sandwiches. Jason had three and he enjoyed them oh, so much. With some horsey sauce and Arby's sauce, he was practically in fast food heaven.

Megan had a crispy chicken cordon bleu sandwich. Add in some fries and soda and we got out for about $12.

Service was friendly (we even got an extra roast beef sandwich for free) and quick!

Chapala Cafe

Restaurant | "Chapala Authentic Mexican Restaurant"

My mom raved about Chapala, so when we were in town we decided to stop in.We came in at 8pm on a Tuesday and were seated right away with a bowl of chips and salsa. I noted that they charge $1.50 for this, but we weren't.We ordered, and the food was delivered quickly. Jason had the two burrito special, which came with rice and beans for $8.50. It was good, but nothing special. Megan had three Flatuas for $7.75. The flatuas were filled with meat that was tasty but not very flavorful.The restaurant is very nice inside, with a large mural and several paintings lining the walls.

There was a large variety of men's hats, which my husband immediately starting trying on.Prices were a little on the expensive side, but everything was beautiful and of high quality.The shop featured items from Ireland as well as Australia and other far flung countries. There were tons of sweaters and clothing, especially for women under a size 12. Not much men's clothing, and nothing for larger sized ladies.The jewelery section was small but tasteful and there was even a sale case.

This had to be one of the funnier moments on our trip. We decided to get into nature and go for a walk at the Azalea State Reserve.Megan expected trail maps and maybe a ranger. Instead we got a gravel lot with a picnic table and a sign stating the park was open sunrise to sunset.We also didn't see any flowers. Azaleas are supposed to bloom in April and May, but due to the heavy rains, blooming had been delayed. Well, actually we saw one flower, it was at that point that we realized neither of us knew what an azalea looked like!The main trail is a loop and it's a pretty easy walk.

Fernbridge Antique Mall

Attraction

Quote:
The Fernbridge Antique Mall is a large rambling space that houses various items from old doors to jewelry to books to pictures to kitchen items. There were also several larger pieces, including trunks, dressers, even a slot machine!

Some items were priced high, others really low. I got a very nice ring for $8. Items are from various dealers which explains some of the price discrepancy.

It was a great place to wander around for an hour to search out some treasures. There is no bathroom, but the restaurant next door let me use theirs.

Open 7 days a week 10am to 5pm.

Blacksmith Shop

Attraction | "The Blacksmith Shop"

Quote:
The Blacksmith Shop has two parts, a gallery and main shop. The gallery focuses more on the art of blacksmithing with items spaced out giving you room to wander and appreciate the items. The more upscale, larger and more expensive items are housed here. The gallery is unmanned and you just had to walk a few doors down for help.

The main shop boasts more items and a blacksmith set up. There are more practical items along with metal jewelry, hand forged nails and silverware.

A great place to visit and take in the wondrous work that can be done with heavy metal.

Jason found the larger items to be reasonably priced and the smaller items to be way too expensive.

Ferndale Cemetery

Attraction

Quote:
The Ferndale Cemetery is a popular tourist attraction. The cemetery is built onto a hill and has markers going back to the 1800s. From the top are great views of the ocean, town, and Eel River Valley.Most of the graves are lovingly cared for, with many flowers and trinkets.The cemetery does close at dusk time and it is a narrow road, traffic goes in one circular loop type pattern. If you are in good shape, consider walking.If you are interested in genealogy or in mapping the cemetery, that work has already been done for the most part. You can contact the Ferndale Museum for more information, as of now it is not available on the web.

Once 5 o'clock rolls around, one of the cheaper places to eat in Ferndale is the Ferndale Pizza Company, which is open until 9pm.Everyone we asked in town pointed us to the Ivanhoe, but we wanted cheap eats and so off we went for a pizza.We had a medium cowboy (Canadian bacon, salami, pepperoni, mushrooms and olives) for $15.90. The pizza was good, although the dough was weak in the middle of the pie. The day after the pizza tasted good cold, but the toppings slid off in a great big heap. It was greasy the next day too.They also have a cheap salad bar that gives you one trip. There are sandwiches, ravioli, spaghetti, lasagna and cheesy garlic bread.Soda...Read More

Centerville Beach

Attraction

Quote:
Centerville Beach is a secret only the locals seem to know about. There are a few visitors who are staying in Ferndale, but it's mostly quiet with less than 20 people present at sunset.  Centerville Beach is unsupervised, there are no lifeguards and it looks like a good place to surf. People were starting beach fires and cooking their dinner right on the beach.  The beach has two parts an upper and lower. The upper part is where most of the people are cooking. The lower part is where you can splash around. To get to the lower from the upper, there is a drop off of about 1 to 3 feet depending on where you make your way down. It's all sandy and it's not much trouble to get up or down....Read More

The volunteer at the front desk, who will also sell you pieces, is also one of the artists featured in the gallery.

There is photography, calligraphy, paintings and sculpture. All of the work is done by local artists, mostly from Ferndale and the few surrounding communities.

Don't expect low prices though! Although there were several things at low prices, most of the stuff is priced at, or just below, what you would pay at any other gallery.

Hours are 10am - 5pm.

Not a big deal because there is one in the breakfast room that you can use anytime of day, along with microwave popcorn. We saw most of the rooms (they were booked solid both nights we were there, but we got peeks when people had checked out) and it appears Forget Me Not is probably the worst.
