Local spot. Authentic Mexican. Try eating in the small deck area. The downside is that they only sell beer and wine - no tequila.

California-Italian cuisine as only Healdsburg can create. I especially like their menu combinations that feature a pasta and a meat or chicken option. The veal and spaghetti is my favorite.

Just 5 minutes up Irwin Road across from the Cottage, it looks like a cross between a convenience store and maybe a dollar store, but they have some of the best turkey that you can find anywhere. Williams-Sonoma has their smoked turkeys available in their catalog for Thanksgiving. If you're looking to pack a sandwich to take wine tasting, look no further.

Excellent California clam chowder and crab and shrimp sandwiches in an outdoor setting on the Spud Point Marina overlooking Bodega Bay. Pretty much the same view in the Birds when Melanie Daniels (Tippie Hedren) rows across the Bay with the love birds.

"Greasy spoon" and nothing fancy, but just the type of breakfast you'll need for a day of wine tasting. I've enjoyed the huevos rancheros and the short stack of pancakes with the sausage patty many times. Bring an appetite!

Intimate late night bar and music venue in Healdsburg. If you're into celebrity or not-so-celebrity wine makers and chefs, you'll see them here unwinding after a hard day in the cellar or kitchen. It can get crowded. If it's too much, head over to one of the many other Healdsburg bar scenes like Ralph's Martini House.

Parks & Nature
Jack London's Home and Ranch is near Glen Ellen in the Valley of the Moon. If you're going to spend some time outside (other than at the Cottage) this is a "must see" home and property. It has picnic areas and miles of hiking trails. Stop in later for a beer or glass of wine at the Jack London Pub in Glen Ellen. It was the setting for the bar in the movie "Bottle Shock.

World-renowned horticulturist, Luther Burbank, lived and experimented with plants here in his home and garden for most of his 50-year career. He invented the Russet Burbank potato and the Santa Rosa plum - just two of his famous plant varieties. It is downtown, so you are close to many food and drink venues.

The place to go to see the giant coastal Redwoods. Stop and have coffee at the Coffee Bazaar in funky Guerneville before hitting the easy walking paths that wind through these majestic and awe-inspiring trees. Go early as it can get crowded in Guerneville, along the Russian River, and in the park during the summer months.

Sightseeing
Mission San Francisco Solano was the 21st mission - the last and northernmost mission in Alta California. It was opened in 1823 and was the only mission in Alta California built after Mexico gained independence from Spain. If seeing an iconic California historical site is a part of your travel plans, the mission and the quaint town of Sonoma are worth the drive. I like The Girl and the Fig for lunch. Lots of other restaurants, shops, and winery/tasting rooms - many around the historic town plaza surrounded by buildings dating from the Bear Flag rebellion.

Stop by the iconic Potter School House in Bodega when heading out to Bodega Bay. This is the schoolhouse from Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds. Annie Hayworth's (Suzanne Pleshette) house is next door. Turn off the highway and drive up for a photo op. And if you're feeling parched, stop in at the old school Casino Bar and Grill in Bodega for cold one.
