>>Cathy, I assume you are doing next year? <<

Of course! Already signed up. It will be my 8th year to race it. I'll likely be doing the HVM/Barb's double too.

I usually stay with my friends in Santa Rosa, but for whomever wanted something more homey than a hotel.....there are a number of B&Bs in the area. Some nice ones right off of River Road/Vine Hill, or in Healdsburg. Or, Madrona Manor, if you want to shell out a few bucks.

Being on the heat!!!!!!!!!!! I was hoping there might be a Vineman Scholarship this year since I'm gonna be a F/T student! Dave!?!? :) I'm a year ahead of clm! going for Vineman number 9!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Check Fern Grove Cottages. That is where my wife and I are staying for Barb's.

The water is a bit green from summer algae build up but is fine to swim in. You can check the North Coast Water Quality Control board web site for actual testing results all along the river.

I spent my summers during college lifeguarding on the river in Healdsburg and swam in the river every day with no ill effects...although that does perhaps explain some of my "issues".
