Got my carnitas burrito at the Guerneville Taco Truck today---yum, especially for those few of us trying to maintain/gain weight. Calories aside, this taco truck is the best in Sonoma County. It's owned by the same fellow who owns La Tapatia, a Mexican restaurant, and River Inn, an American food restaurant, in Guerneville, and he knows how to do it right. The extra large is enough for two meals and the prices are right. $6 for a large, $8.25 for the enormous extra large. There's always a crowd there, but the service is fast so there's never a long wait. Lucky for me, the truck is located in the Safeway parking lot, just half a block from the Russian River Getaways office.

( 3 / 396 )This Labor Day weekend, fishing in the Russian River does not require a fishing license. My neighbors who fish have been having great success catching largemouth and smallmouth bass. I have a fishing rod somewhere, thinking of heading down to the river myself to try my luck. My neighbors throw the fish back, but those bass should be good eating.

( 3 / 384 )Just had a Reuben, with cole slaw, at Sam's Holey Cow diner in Monte Rio. I'm sure everything on the menu is good---and nothing's more than $10--but somehow I always order the Reuben. If there's a Reuben contest, this one gets the blue ribbon. Great casual local place for breakfast and lunch, but they are getting a beer and wine license soon and will be offering a single menu item dinner soon.

I always see Mallards at the River, but tonight it was a group of Mergansers, very regal.

The winemakers are tasting their grapes and declaring harvest is near. Healdsburg will start picking grapes next week, with many to follow the following week.
