Hey, byteback! Love that name. Yes, do be with us, you'll not regret it & you'll really like all the people who come from all walks of life & a surprisingly diverse range (no FReeper comments on the "d" word, I just slipped!) of viewpoints. Tho'I moved north, I'm a 25 year Marinite who can testify there are a lot more of us there than media & politicians admit who don't/won't squeeze into the old "peacock feathers, redwood hot tub, filled Chardonnay galss but empty head" mold. Check American Perservative's cool post #55 for all the pkg. lots. Best to go into one as you have good chance of having a bud' among us who parked there, too, & will walk back w/you to your car later. Tips: Dress comfortably in layers (good shoes are vital), bring water, small fannypack (ID/license, money, phone, quarters for the public john should be easy to get at but hard to loose). Hat, sunglasses or other weather related gear, small camera & snack bar are good options. if you can, don't forget a flag or sign that says what you feel.
Oh, G-d...I'm turning into a FReeper Martha Stewart. It's the Marin in me.

Those are all good ideas on things to bring and wear. One thing I always try to have on hand is a cell phone. You never know when you may need to make an emergency call. Cameras are always good to have, not only for the after FReep reports to post, but it may also be necessary to have documentary evidence.
