But you can take the ferry from Marin to SF then take BART to SJ. Lots of people do it so they can live in the north bay. Golden Gate transit also stops about 3 blocks from my house and they run from SJ to SF and up to here and beyond. Yes it's a pain in the ass, but the median price for a home in Sonoma county just jumped all the way up to $550,000. That's for an actual house, not a portable out house. I remember back in 92 living Novato CA. they did a contest on on the radio who commuted the furthest. Some got close to 3 hours one way. No fucking way. Not worth it. little_old_man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But please, no more store-bought hummingbird feed with the red food dye. If it causes cancer in human beings, imagine what it does to these tiny little darlings! Making your own is simple and cheap. 1/4 cup sugar, 1 cup water. Or in other words a 4 to 1 ratio of water to sugar. Put the water in a glass measuring cup in the microwave. Nuke till the water just begins to boil (this kills any germs in the water.) Note the time it takes so you can just dial it in next time rather than watch for it. Add the sugar and stir till dissolved. Let sit on the counter till it's come down substantially in temperature. Hummingbirds are attracted to the contrast and color of the "flowers" in the base of the feeder, not the color of the liquid. I have used this recipe for YEARS and have so many hummingbirds around that I sometimes need to call in additional Air Traffic Control to handle all the traffic at the feeder. To clean the equipment (a must!). To be done at each refill. Flush the base with hot water from the tap. Use an old toothbrush to clean the bee traps and Q-Tips to wipe out around the base of the "flowers" where the yellow bee traps press onto the feed outlets. Fill the glass bottle with water and nuke it till it just begins to boil (again, note the time this takes.) Use oven mitts to remove from the microwave, then pour the near-boiling water over and through the base parts for extra germ killing action. Don't nuke your nectar bottle in the microwave if it's plastic. Instead, and assuming you care about the care and feeding of hummingbirds, throw the whole thing out and get one of these instead. No really. Please. Get one of these instead. (but throw away the free sample of nectar mix they include, unless it contains no red dye.) (oops, my link didn't show up. It's there now...)
