Driving Highway 1 along the Mendocino coast is a scenic adventure that draws thousands of visitors every year. Following the coast from Gualala on the south to Needle Rock in the north can be a challenge and features back-road driving. But imagine 100 years ago. Were there roads then too? How did people move along the coast? And what were they doing? Why did they settle here? Forget the Gold Rush and the forty-ninersÃ--timber was king here. Logging, milling, and shipping wood was the focus of the economy. Railcars steamed through the forests, and ships pulled up to rickety landings to load shipments for faraway places. Today some coast views remain the same, while others have changed dramatically, and whole towns have vanished over the century.

Welcome to Cabot Cove, a fictional town created for the long-running television series, Murder, She Wrote. We know it as Mendocino, a picturesque coastal village in Northern California, a unique setting with that special, small-town feel. In the 1980s, the show's producers selected the area to represent their Maine hamlet, where all sorts of mysterious characters congregate with murder on their minds. When asked about Mendocino in an interview with the Mendocino Beacon, actress Angela Lansbury said, "I fell in love with the place. I mean, how could you not? It is so beautiful and the people are wonderful. The town is like stepping back in time, and I loved the sense of community there. It was a joy to be there and work on the show." In this photographic chapbook by former Mendocino innkeeper, Barbara Reed, you'll see some of the Hollywood stars and humble locals who helped create these Memories of Cabot Cove. It will inspire you to visit Mendocino to look for clues about the many locations that are featured in the show.
