I booked the mushroom dome at the crux of the atmospheric rivers in Santa Cruz. The place was gorgeous but I had Alice in Wonderland level fever dreams about my mushroom running away in a mudslide, and my dog was a bit too inconsolable to be separated during the storm so alas, we cut our trip short. The house is really cool and I enjoyed the rain sounds otherwise. The storm took the power out and I intended to wait until a healthy 8 AM to notify my hosts, but they had already fixed it a bit after seven. If a mudslide did take the road out, you couldn’t be in better hands. They are the coolest people. I’m not sure my hosts were even a bit fazed from the unusual torrential downpour.
