Today's riddle: What do you call a belt that is made of watches? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Fatal Crash on Tomales Rd in Marin County (rwbpress.com) — A deadly single-vehicle crash Monday night closed a stretch of Tomales Road near 690 Tomales Road, disrupting a key route used by Tomales and rural Marin drivers. CHP and emergency crews responded around 9:13 p.m., and investigators are still determining what caused the collision, while the victim's identity and any potential wrongful-death implications remain under review.
2. prep-football-analysis-windsors-outlook-without-vose-contenders-in-league-races-player-of-year-watchlist (modbee.com) — Tomales High's football team sits at 0-0 in NCL III play and 1-3 overall as North Bay leagues hit the midseason mark, giving locals a sense of where the Braves stand. The roundup details Windsor's quarterback injuries, shifting league races, standout players across the region, and full standings that frame Tomales' path as conference games begin.
3. Marshall waterfront on the market (ptreyeslight.com) — A major 17-acre waterfront property on the eastern shore of Tomales Bay in Marshall is up for sale at $13 million, potentially reshaping services Tomales-area residents rely on, from the post office to a beloved oyster spot and restaurant. Long owned by a Croatian family, the site's future hinges on strict coastal rules, needed environmental cleanup, and whether a new buyer preserves its working waterfront character.
4. The Spookiest Bay Area Films to Stream This Halloween (kqed.org) — Tomales gets a brief shoutout in a Bay Area–focused roundup of horror and thriller movies you can stream this Halloween, many filmed at familiar North Bay spots like Point Reyes, Bodega Bay, and Santa Rosa. The hosts share why these films feel especially eerie when you recognize local lighthouses, coastlines, and city streets, and they sprinkle in behind-the-scenes stories and tips for what to watch next.
