Page iii Dedication We dedicate this book to the immediate family members with whom we have shared the adventure of travel in Northern California. For Mary Lou, that's Russ and Barbara. For Lee, that's Sheila, Nancy, Mary Jane, Colleen, Bart, Karin, and Paul. About the Authors Since teaming up personally and professionally in 1996, Lee Foster and Mary Lou Janson have crisscrossed Northern California to research this book. For Lee, this quest has been a pleasant re-discovery of a terrain he has watched for the past 25 years. Mary Lou, new to California, has brought an outsider's inquisitiveness and fresh perspective to the task. Foster and Janson also publish travel writing/photography widely in magazines, newspapers, and on the Internet. Both are members of the Society of American Travel Writers. Please send your comments and tips for future editions of this book to the authors at Foster Travel Publishing, PO Box 5715, Berkeley, CA 94705, 510/549-2202, email lee@fostertravel.com.
