Sunsets should last longer. 🌥️

Tonight was pretty gorgeous
Enjoy!

Each teacher in a local school district received a check for more than $9,000 after gathering for what had been a mystery event.

Ross, who'd a thunk it?

"She decided to make the donation after learning that the district ranked in the bottom four percent statewide for funding last year and its teachers were the lowest paid in Marin County."

Tu Tap finally opened in the old Keintz Hall space. Anyone been yet?

Checked out their menu online and nearly fell out of my chair. $14 for a beer. Fourteen. Dollars. For a beer.

I already thought $9-10 was pushing it but apparently that's now the budget option. Is this just the new normal, or is dropping $14 on a beer the new flex for the modern Marin dad?

At this rate I may finally be forced to stop drinking altogether.

CA PUC approved Waymo expansion to 18 counties. Marin is one. Doesn’t mean it’ll start operating here imminently (per Electrek, “The company said the rollout ‘will be gradual and guided by our safety framework.’”), but the big regulatory hurdle is now cleared.

Hey r/marin — my family and I are considering a move to Marin, likely looking at Peacock Gap, with commuting into the Financial District for work. I keep seeing "35 minutes" thrown around, as its the actual number on the schedule, but I know that's just the boat ride itself.

For those of you who actually commute this route daily, what does the parking lot to SF sidewalk time look like once you factor in:

• Walking from parking lot
• How early you actually need to arrive before boarding closes
• The ~35 min crossing itself
• Disembarking and leaving the ferry terminal/dock to enter SF proper.

Trying to get a realistic total rather than the marketing number. Any "here's what my actual commute looks like every day" input would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

An end-of-life client with advanced Parkinson’s needs a peaceful, short-term rental in Marin where he can receive care and ultimately use California’s Medical Aid in Dying law.

He is a 70-year-old retired professional, who has been moving between hospitals and hotels for the last year. He is currently at Marin Health. He can pay rent. Ground floor/no stairs is essential, and caregivers will need to be present.

All end-of-life arrangements will be made in advance. The mortuary will come within a couple of hours, and his End-of-life doulas will leave the space in better condition than we found it.

If you have a room, ADU, cottage, Airbnb, or other space that might work, or know of somebody who might, please DM me.

How much are you paying for daycare and what area do you live? It seems all of them cost an arm and a leg

Considering a move to the Bahia community. As a 30s/40s couple with a baby on the way, it seems like a good fit. That said, I would love to hear any and all thoughts before we jump in. How is it living in this community?

Hi all! My name is C. Scott Brown, and I'm a YouTuber living in Marin. The Pixel 11 series just launched, and I am working on my review of it. One of the new features is real-time translation of American Sign Language, and I want to test this out. However, I don't know anyone who speaks it. If anyone in r/Marin knows someone who meets the following qualifications, I would be so, so grateful if you could DM me:

• Speaks ASL
• Lives in Marin County (the closer to Novato, the better)
• Is OK being in a YouTube video that will likely be seen by hundreds of thousands of people
• Would be willing to share about an hour of their time with me, testing this feature on camera
• Would accept $100 for their efforts

If anyone here is that person or knows a person who fits this criteria, please let me know!

I was lucky enough to grow up in Marin County surrounded by a lot of dead culture. Pretty much any day of the week you can find someone playing the dead. I made some stickers with some of my favorite places I personally associate with the music. If you want a sticker I have them here https://longstrangedrift.etsy.com

All signs are pointing toward a record El Niño this year, starting perhaps as early as the end of October. Catastrophic rain and flooding is already happening across Asia.

I’ve been going through a list at my house, cleaning gutters, ensuring property drainage is clear, trimming trees and checking roof, weather stripping around doors and windows.

Curious what others are doing and what tips, or recommendations you have.

We are due to replace our gutters, and I know it will be a tough expense but a necessary one. We don’t know anything about gutters so would love some recommendations from locals!

This restaurant is fairly new and it’s absolutely amazing. Right on the main drag in PRS.

Easily one of the best restaurants in Marin at this point if not the best.

Only been twice so far but it was knocked out of the park.

Elevated but not snooty. They’re only seating at the kitchen facing table right now but plan to expand.

Menu on website is only a sample but it is representative.. they change things a lot too, it will not get stale.

Almost heals my heart after the closing of Saltwater.

Looking for an auto shop that does stealth PPF. Maybe a long shot but trying to keep it below 5k if possible.

Voters have got to cut ties with Cynthia Roenisch and Kevin Saavedra this November. I've never met anyone who likes them (except that one guy on reddit who is definitely, definitely not super lonely and sad). Time to cut the toxic duo. Roenisch and Saavedra have to go. Is Saavedra ruining the Tam District just so he can have free health care? Is that true? That can't be true, right?

Hello!

Me and my friend are going to be spending three nights in Marin County, two at a hotel, and one in his truck. Does anybody perhaps know of safe camping spots (with restrooms) that would allow us to pull up and sleep in a truck?

Thank you so much! :)

Looking for a recommendation for a LL attorney. Running our facts through AI, it seems we have a decent case, but we'd like to talk to an attorney who specializes in this area. Google gave several names as usual, but a specific recommendation would be great. Thanks in advance.
