Happy Valentine’s Day and Presidents Day weekend! Here’s what’s happening around Marin.

“Sing the pain away!” The website lists a bunch of songs to choose from, based on your pain assessment being single at this romantic time of the year. At the Seahorse. 6:30, free.

Here’s my Valentine’s weekend idea. Go see the romantic Wuthering Heights movie that is coming out, pair it with a nice dinner in Tiburon.

“This is an interactive illusion show with a murder theme. The audience gets to solve murders and crimes. Will you survive?” Wednesday through Saturday, 7pm, $20.

The Corner Bar says to stay local, forget the city. At 9:30pm they are clearing the tables and the party goes until 12:30am. No cover charge?

A chance to check out the new space and meet the team. They’ll have music, food and drinks, gifts. 4-8, free.

This is a car-caravan with a professional naturalist. Short and easy walks. 9am, $25.

The Tamalpa Runners Club is hosting the 41st Couples Relay. It sounds like a fun event with different combos possible (like parent / child), not just married couples. 8am, $60 for 2.

Gene Barnes will sing the classics like Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, and Stevie Wonder. 6-8, $23.

Apparently they know how to do crab and it has been out of the water for less than 24 hours. All you can eat with beer and wine for $100. Noon.

This American Legion Bar is one of the few dive bars in Marin I haven’t made it to yet. Live bluegrass music and proceeds go to St. Jude’s Children Hospital. 1-5, $20 for unlimited chili.

“A collection of short films exploring the mystique of the fascinating felines who share our lives.” 1pm, $17 (or bring your pet for an extra charge).

“A collection of short films celebrating our canine companions.” 1pm or 3:30pm, $17 (or bring your pet for an extra charge).

If you are looking for a kid friendly activity to get you out of the house early during ski week, look no further. 8am, $15.

Thursday in SF is a professor in a bar conversation about Fact, Fiction and the Future of Autism Spectrum Disorder Research.

Saturday night in Petaluma’s cool Hall of the Above venue, there is a Throw-Back Prom Night: A Valentine's Day Blast from the Past party.

Terrapin Roadshow is returning this summer to the Forest Meadows Amphitheatre at Dominican University in San Rafael, July 24, 25, and 26. “We’re bringing the spirit and community of Terrapin Crossroads”, “rooted in Grateful Dead tradition” and features Grahame Lesh, Nicki Bluhm, and more. It sold out last year, so get your tickets soon.

If you’d like your pet to be considered for Pet of the Week, please fill this out!

I did a recent video about Hilda’s in San Anselmo and what’s replacing it. It’s clear people love diners and miss them when they’re gone. So when someone sent me a video of this restaurant in Novato, I figured you might be interested in trying it out. I haven’t been yet, but want to check it out.

Why? It’s a diner, which is cool, but also has a train running around the whole restaurant!

The person who sent me the video said Sam’s is “a long time Novato favorite that just sold from one Sam to another.” What are the odds it would sell to another Sam? Or was that a requirement? Or did Sam #2 see Sam’s Place and think “that’s my place, I should own it”?

Thanks for reading. If you know of anything interesting going on in Marin, just reply to this email to let us know.
