Lighthouse at Point Cabrillo, near Mendocino, CA
If you haven’t been to Mendocino and its beautiful, rugged coastline, you’re missing out on one of California’s best hidden-getaway gems. I get the yearning to visit Mendocino at least every couple of years. Below is a flyover video from my Phantom drone that will give you a sense for how special this place really is:

We go to the Mountain Winery for concerts every summer. It’s hard to imagine a venue — anywhere in the world — more beautiful and intimate than this. Overlooking Silicon Valley on a full-moonlit night, this place just oozes positive energy. Add Juanes’ rapid paced Latin beat, a couple of thousand screaming and dancing Latinas and you’ve got a night to remember!

Few places on earth match the serenity that Mendocino’s northern California coastline offers. I’m feeling its gravitational pull — must return there soon.
