Same Time Next Year
Remember this? Click HERE
We just returned from the Heritage House Resort on the Mendocino coast where Same Time Next Year was filmed. This poor property has been through several owners since it foreclosed back in 2008. It finally re-opened, newly renovated, a couple of years ago and we’ve been wanting to stay there ever since. Our anniversary on Tuesday seemed the perfect excuse.
And now with apologies to family and friends back East, here are some photos — click to make larger.
Pay no attention to the short sleeved shirts and sunshine…OK?
On the way to Mendocino, we had a picnic lunch at a favorite vineyard in Anderson Valley.
The view from our cottage. Second cottage down below on the left is where Same Time Next Year was filmed. BTW, they run the film nonstop on the TV’s in the rooms.
Glorious sunset from our deck.
A hike the next day took us from the coast into pygmy forest and coastal woodland.
Next morning we strolled around the 40+ acres that make up these beautiful grounds.
Then a lovely drive home down Route 1.
Even saw sea lions. Click to make larger.
Happy Anniversary to my better half…let’s do this again, same time next year and every year after, OK?
circa 1979
Hey! I remember that lovely 1979 moment 🙂 Congratulations!
Beautiful grounds and sunset. But are you saying that the only thing on TV is the continually running movie? No sports or home improvement shows? What did the better half do??
No the film was running continuously on only one channel. Plenty of other channels to choose from. But by the time we got back – after hiking all day, eating great meals, drinking fine wine – well TV just didn’t matter. It’s a beautiful spot – a great trip.
Is that by any chance Baron Herzog sitting on the porch?
Knew it wasn’t a Gallo!
The pictures are timeless! The on with the date of ’79…harkens back to good olde days, merci!
