We'll ya learn something new everyday.  I didn't know about "Murder She
Wrote" being filmed there.  Just south of Mendocino is the Heritage House
where "Same Time Next Year" was filmed.  It is a group of cottages overlooking
the ocean.  Each one has a name.  The one used in STNY is called "Next Year".
This place is one of the most romantic places I can think of for an 
aniversary get-away.  Yet another movied filmed in the area was "The Russians
are Coming".  It's a hilarious movie with Jonathon Winters and Alan Arkin
that showcases the scenery in the area quite well.  My late grandmother,
cousin and late godmother are all in it.  Mendocino also is the town in which 
the wonderful restaurant "Cafe Beaujolais" exists.  It should not be missed 
if you are in the area.

If you are a photographer an beautiful shot can be had as the sun is setting
over the ocean.  From the south, across the bay and the Mendocino Headlands
you can take a picture of the Mendocino peninsula and the town.  For a
few minutes the sun reflects off the windows in the shops lining the street.
It's pretty incredible.
