Golden Gate transit was free today (because of the Marin Fair)
I took the bus to the Civic Center and saved the $25 parking fee (and hassle). Thank you Golden Gate transit!

Sorry for the ignorant question, but I'm doing my best to use public transportation more. It's great that I can take the number 17 bus from Mill Valley to the San Rafael transit center (and from there lots of places using the Smart Train and other bus lines). But where do I leave my car in Mill Valley for 4 to 5 hours? It's easiest for me to park on Miller Avenue or Blithedale, but is the best place to leave my car the Manzanita commuter parking lot? Thank you in advance!
Planning a trip later this year. There are lots of great hotel choices, but White Swan seems iconic. Worth it? Thank you in advance!
Edit: Found the right lot with your advice. Thank you!
First time I've ever been here (picking someone up on Father's Day) and they got it all closed off except for a few spaces on the edge. Do they do this every Sunday? I was thinking about taking some weekend excursions on the train for fun and to ride it to the Marin fair but if I can't park I'm going do something else. is this a one time thing?
I was on a 3 1/2 mile "walk in the woods" when the glued sole of my light hiking boots came loose and started flapping. I secured it in place with my shoelace which held up until I got back to my car. These aren't poor quality boots- Rocky boots made in the USA- but they are old (I've had them nearly 30 years). This was a short walk and I could've gotten back to my car barefoot if I had to. But it got me thinking about long hikes and multi mile backpacking trips. Do you folks carry things for boot repair? If so, what do you suggest? Thank you in advance!

Have a late 1990s Toyota sedan and the Costco website says they do not have the tire size so for the first time in 30 years I'll be buying tires from someone else. Favorite tire shop? I don't need to pay the absolute lowest price but I would like a reasonable price for quality service and easy scheduling. Thank you in advance!
Do you carry one when on the stream? If so, what is your favorite? I'm partial to Leatherman or Victorinox but I'm open to any brand. Thank you in advance!
