Weller House Inn Fort Bragg, California Bed & Breakfast
Horace Aaron Weller came to Fort Bragg to manage the Company Store, and built a one and a half story Victorian in 1886. In 1897, he added a second and third floor, making extensive use of beautiful redwood and fir paneling throughout the house, bringing the house to its present size of 10,000 square feet.
The main floor had ten rooms with a large entrance hall, comprising several paneled eating rooms, a study, parlor, music room, kitchen, pantry room, game room and office. Two seat benches and a redwood gothic arch enhance the hall and staircase, and there are three distinctive fireplaces. Four large bedrooms, together with a hall, bathroom and a three room attic complete the second floor. The master bedrooms were joined together by a connecting wash room with the original marble sink. The bathroom has an unusual enameled elephant-trunk pull toilet.
A stairway leads to the spectacular third floor ballroom,900 feet square with 15 foot ceilings. The ceilings and walls are paneled in polished old growth redwood. A rare curly redwood mantel also enhances this beautiful room. The hall has phenomenal acoustics, and was used as the Baptist meeting hall and Sunday school, until a 'real' church was built. The hand-forged bronze chandelier was designed for the space by Coe Studios in 2009.
When Mr. Weller died in 1929, the ballroom became a real party place; the huge hidden storage spaces along the perimeter of the hall may have come in very handy during prohibition...
In 1996 a complete restoration and renovation project was undertaken, including reconstruction of the historic water tower. It is the tallest structure in Fort Bragg; probably the tallest in Mendocino county, for that matter. The Weller House Inn opened as a B&B in the summer of 1998. In 2008 the ballroom also became a venue for social Argentine tango, salsa, and swing dancing, occasionally featuring live music (no amplification necessary).
STAFF
Vivian LaMothe
Vivien managed The Ear Inn, a New York restaurant and venue for live music and poetry readings, in the early 1980's. Independent filmmaking led to a decade based in Copenhagen, Berlin, Warsaw, and Helsinki, during the fascinating period of change while the Iron Curtain was tumbling down. Back in the States, Vivien became a landscaper, specializing in environmentally appropriate historic garden design.
She devoted herself to motherhood full time for five years. Finding an unmet need for illustrated books to help children learn second languages (multi-lingual pairs of books designed for 'immersion' rather than bilingual books which lead to 'translation'), she founded Macaronic Press and published Jake the Gardener in English, French, German, and Spanish. But her favorite language of all is social Argentine tango.
Vivien enjoys slow food and likes to create extraordinary dining experiences, such as recreation of a 1912 Thanksgiving menu a hundred years later. She is a committed environmentalist, a cyclist, and enjoys blacksmithing with her son. Managing the Weller House Inn brings a number of her interests together in one place, and her nomadic spirit is refreshed by taking care of travelers from all over the world.
Angelina,
housekeeper
Angelina has been the main housekeeper since the Weller House Inn first opened it's doors in 1998. Fond memories include the bed breaking down on the first night the first room was sold. Her most used saying is Paso a pasito, mas bonito (Step by little step, more beautiful). Often pasito becomes pasote (stride).
Angelina studies English at the local college, and is very active in the local Catholic church, singing in the choir and helping cooking fabulous meals for hundreds of people.
If you hear beautiful singing, it might be Angelina making her way though the mountain of work to keep our rooms fresh and inviting

-Instrumental used in the video:
The Cinematic Orchestra- To Build A Home
-The poem I wrote, which I used as the audio of the video:
stay
Don’t leave
Something I’ve repeated over and over
I need someone or something to be forever lasting
In this world of broken promises and temporary encounters, nothing is meant to be forever
Take this chance
Explore the world with me
Experience life with me
Into the wilderness
The wilderness of life
Take my hand
Grip it tight
Follow me
As i follow you
The truth is, we don’t know where to go, we’re just two young youth
We’ll follow the trail that was left before us
Lets take the leap into the unknown
Where nobody attempts to go
It may be
Good
It may be
Bad
It’s called life,
we’re experiencing what it is to be “living”
Rather than simply Existing
that’s the general population of 7.6 billion
What if we,
We were to live
Live life with all risks
p.s. i probably won't post again for another few months, but thanks for watching (:

Ep. 13 Exploring Fort Bragg, California. Life Goals
LIVING OUTSIDE! We have so much of this world to see. We are currently in Northern California. Seeing new things, meeting great people, and having good times are what it's about!

Who are we?
We are best friends who love to travel. Mike and I met during our first year in college while living in Ohio. Ten years later, we quit our jobs and decided to travel together full-time.
What do we do?
We travel full-time! Our first goal was to travel the United States in a camper. We bought a 1979 Class A RV and headed straight for the Florida Keys. Since then, we’ve been through several vehicle and camper changes and are currently living in a 2008 Prowler travel trailer and driving a 2017 Ram 2500. We’ve driven across the U.S. twice and are currently located in Northern California.
Our second life goal is to travel by sailboat. We are currently researching, learning, and saving up to complete this goal. Our thoughts right now include moving back to the Florida Keys while we gain sailing experience and then take off to circumnavigate the globe.
Our third life goal is to travel by airplane. We plan to work on our pilot’s licenses and continue to travel by air.
Why do we do what we do
Freedom: We have total control over our time. We are free to travel where, when, and how we want. We also have the freedom to pick our work and vacation schedules.
Experience: We get out of the routine life and enjoy different scenery. We meet different people, grow, experience, learn, and challenge ourselves in every way possible.
Change in mindset: Fears seem to disappear. We have the mentality that we are only going to be in one place for a short time, so we take advantage of everything that place has to offer.
We want to live a life that is much more meaningful to us.
How do we do it?
While traveling the country, I currently work as a traveling physical therapist with a travel healthcare agency, and Mike finds different trade jobs on the road. My work assignments are 3 months each, with freedom to pick the locations and take as much time off as we want between assignments. We stay in campgrounds while we are working for convenience, and boondock on our time off.
We are currently in transition to part two. We are saving up for our future sailboat and sailing life. Plans will evolve as we continue to research and learn about sailing.
Follow us on our adventures as we travel around the world!

Travel Diary || Highway 1 to Fort Bragg
My family and I went on a road trip through Highway 1 up to Fort Bragg, CA. We had multiple stops along the way, and one thing is for sure, and it's that the California coast is amazing.
