Some folks came out of Smileys in Bolinas last night and discovered their car was missing. They saw some social media posts about a car driving erratically in Stinson and ended up finding their car deep in the sand on Stinson Beach. Bermuda Stinson Triangle. What’s going on down there? (Thx ECV)

Anyone have details about this incident at the Nicasio Reservoir yesterday? From a WMF reporter “I don’t know why there was such a large law enforcement presence. There was a man swimming on the far side of the nicasio reservoir and they had the helicopter lift him out and immediately arrested him. He was just in shorts and didn’t look to be in distress. I couldn’t find out anything about it after. I don’t understand why they didn’t use the rescue boat that was on scene. A mystery!”

This photo by Sam Mondros of Bob Weir helping to dig out the stranded boat in Stinson Beach is outstanding. And he wrote an article about Bob and the boat without a reference to "Lost Sailor".
"Dressed in clam diggers and wearing a black amulet, Mr. Weir stood pondering in the rough surf. The musician had developed a soft spot for the vessel and its hard-driving captain, saying he couldn’t bear seeing the Chandalar destroyed. It would be too heartbreaking."

A fascinating new book about the political history of Point Reyes National Seashore written by Gerald Warburg.
"Kennedy, according to Warburg, had wanted the designation for Cape Cod, but for political and regional balance added Point Reyes."
"“I didn’t realize the depth of the White House support for Point Reyes,” Warburg said. “I grew up thinking John Ehrlichman was a villain from Watergate days. I didn’t realize he was actually one of the heroes of Point Reyes."
"Despite the diverse cast of characters, Warburg believes the thriving park would not exist today were it not for Katherine Miller Johnson (widow of Clem Miller), a woman so erased from the story that there is nothing about her in the signage at Point Reyes."

Looks like the boat trying to tow the grounded boat in Stinson Beach just went aground. Hopefully this all works out.

Judy was an amazing teacher at the West Marin School and loved the kids so much. She would always be at our little league games on her own time to support them...
"Dear West Marin-Inverness Families,
It is with a heavy heart that I send our community this message.
On the afternoon of her 72nd birthday, just a month into her well-earned retirement, our beloved teacher, Judy Van Evera suffered a major hemorrhagic stroke.
Unfortunately, Judy’s health is deteriorating and her medical team and loved ones agree that it is time to stop treatment. Judy’s family is certain this is what she would want.
Judy’s daughter, Larkin, has created a Caring Bridge page to share updates. She also created a GoFundMe page to support Judy and her family. Both are linked below:
https://www.caringbridge.org/v...https://gofund.me/49268f09It breaks our hearts to have to share this information with you.
