Strange things happen in Marin County

Marin County never ceases to surprise me. I mean Marin County does kind of have a reputation for um how can I say it… strange people! Basically, anything goes here in Marin.

If you like to drive a fancy car and own a big giant house that’s fine, if you like to live in a commune out in West Marin well that is fine too, if you want to dance under the moon that’s okay too, if you want to be a workaholic and commute in to San Francisco day in and day out that is fine too, if you want to be an environmentalist, an animal rights activist, an antiwar protester that is fine too, if you want to spend your whole paycheck at Whole Foods fine, if you want to put Sarah Palin stickers on your car and watch Fox news that is… okay well almost anything goes here (if you are liberal). Remember when George W. apologized for calling John Walker Lindh “some misguided Marin County hot-tubber.” Marin just kind of has a reputation.

Along the lines of strange things happening in Marin look what we happened upon the other day.

Wild Turkeys at Tennessee Valley parking lot!

And if you are wondering who besides the Turkeys is making the gobbling sounds in the background… well that is Marin resident Celia.

I mean… does any other county have a Facebook Fan Page for a turkey as a public figure? The turkey has 480 fans. The turkey has more fans than I do, but I’m not bitter or anything.
