: ... 1968. Wife Sarah and I moved to a rural part of Fort Bragg, California in 2000 to enjoy our retirement. I am an avid reader of arcane books, have an eclectic collection of nearly 10,000 pieces of music and am a train nut - I love real ones and all types of model ones. I am the Mendocino Coast Model Railroad & Historical Society's historian and with enormous help from my friend Roger Thornburn (the blog's webmaster) have compiled a history of the railroads that operated along the Mendocino Coast - you can find it at Mendorailhistory.com. My torso reveals my other love - food and chocolate. I am blessed with four great kids with whom I have had great adventures. I have, alas, grown old but definitely have not grown up.

Point Cabrillo Lighthouse at the end of a rainbow

February 21, 2019 by Tony Phillips

This is a comment from Lynn Catlett in her Facebook page, “You know you’re from Mendocino if ………” “The rainbows we’ve been seeing on the coast lately have been pretty spectacular – but this photo from Tracy Salkowitz from this morning takes the cake.”

I absolutely agree with Lynn. Probably the most spectacular pic of Point Cabrillo I have ever seen. The pic was taken on February 10 at 8:05 AMMendocino, CA.

This somewhere over a rainbow is the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse on the Mendocino Coast
