Two Neat, an Unabashed, Unadulterated Mill Valley Institution, Is Setting Sail at the End of August, So Get Your Laughs on Before They’re Gone!! Hours Are 12-5pm!

Two Neat, brilliant Bob Bijou’s witty, charming, always LOL card, gifts, toys and much more shop is shutting down the business at the end of of August. Like many businesses who’ve lasted through many eras, it is largely a sad day. But Bob and his witty co-horts are focused on landing this plane with all the joy and fart jokes Two Neat calls for.

Clear Skies Ahead: County of Marin Allocates $2.2M for Strawberry Undergrounding Project – Bike Lanes Like in the Future!

The project involves building underground conduits for use by PG&E, AT&T and Comcast. It includes drilling horizontally under Highway 101. Construction will begin in early August and run though late October. Street parking will be limited during the project. The undergrounding will be followed by another phase that involves creating bike lanes, Moulton-Peters said.

ā€œThere’s been some initial work by the county looking at a bike path,ā€ she said. ā€œIt will potentially open up right of way space that could be used as a bike lane. That could be helpful for adults and older students who want to ride from Strawberry over the pedestrian overcrossing into Mill Valley to go to the middle school.ā€

Someone’s Written a Children’s Book About SF’s Famed Bob’s Donuts in Mill Valley and Elsewhere

SF donut shop institution Bob’s Donuts has been further immortalized as the subject of the new children’s book Bob’s Donuts for Breakfast, which tells the tale of an intrepid dog and squirrel who are trying to get themselves some donuts. It’s been a heck of a year or so for the 65-year-old family-owned SF favorite Bob’s Donuts. The 24-hour donut destination had to move to a new spot on Polk Street after some sort of landlord dispute, but their new location at 1720 Polk Street just opened in February. Meanwhile, the staff had been dealing with a tragic hit-and-run accident that severely injured one of their bakers. But now there’s a sweet topping on a year of tumult, as KGO has the interesting story that someone has published a children’s book about Bob’s Donuts.
