Apparently on Monday, Deb of KZST dissed Cloverdale (don’t ask me, I didn’t hear it, I have no idea what she said). But Budget Travel Magazine has nominated Cloverdale as one of “America’s Coolest Small Towns.” You can still cast your vote here. And don’t forget to vote for the most beautiful wine country in the world, here.

Sounds like it’s time for a Ten Free Things to Do in Cloverdale post. For samples of other Ten Free Things posts see:

• Bodega Bay
• Healdsburg
• Petaluma
• Santa Rosa
• Sebastopol
• Sonoma Valley
• Windsor

The problem is, I only have 4 free things  to do in Cloverdale so far.  So let me know:  what are your favorite free things to do in Cloverdale? Leave a comment below, or email me at lisa (at) sonomaonthecheap.com. I’ll even accept Geyserville, we can do a combo list.

Also, if you have any great photos of Cloverdale (or anywhere in Sonoma County) that you’d like to share, cruise over to our Facebook Fan page and upload them. (Link at the right).  Thanks!

Sometimes you just want a little extra cash for something fun. (Like Wicked tickets? ) Paying the utilities or buying toilet paper just don’t cut it. One way to make your money play is to make it work harder for you on the duller, toliet-paper related and utility type expenses. (I’m all about the fun.) The New York Times has collected nearly 2,500 reader-generated money saving tips here.
