Yesterday, my daughter went to a wonderful birthday party in Heisler Park, overlooking the beautiful Pacific Ocean. The party mom had to get there at 6am to reserve the spot, but it was worth it.

Most houses in Laguna Beach do not have air conditioning. With temperatures hitting 105 degrees yesterday, the beach was the only place to be. Thanks Patti for this awesome photo!
Slapfish opens today at 11am at 211 Broadway and is giving out free lobster rolls to the first 100 guests. Slapfish started as a food truck buying direct from fisherman and now has a few brink and mortar locations with a fast-casual seafood theme. In 2012, OC Weekly gave them top votes for the best fish and chips, and in 2013 they won the Golden Foodie award for best seafood in Orange County.
Have you ever dreamed about getting married in Laguna Beach, somewhere overlooking the Pacific Ocean, but thought it would be too expensive? You can get a wedding permit for the Gazebo in Heisler Park for only $255! For more information, go to www.lagunabeachcity.net.
Have you ever been to Jahraus Park in Laguna Beach? If you come on my Heisler Park / Downtown tour you will see it. "Deer Warrior" is there looking a little scary or protective? "Boy and Dog" is there with a drinking fountain in the back for the boy and one in the front for the dog. Mr. Jahraus is famous for saving Heisler Park from development. When you do something like that, you get your own park!
Seriously, the best day ever in Laguna Beach today!!! Went to the Green Eggs and Am skimboard contest at West Street and talked with the godfathers of skim, Tex Haines and Chris Henderson (pictured above). Then watched amazing athletes skim while two whales were playing right behind the skimmers. How many Lifeguard Towers can you find in Laguna Beach? This top landmark is everywhere from Laguna Beach Books, to Cottage Furnishings, to Main Beach. Read my blog on LagunaBeach.com for more sightings. http://lagunabeach.com/aroundtown/the-laguna-beach-lifeguard-tower-top-landmark-in-town/

History and beauty come together at Moss Point in Laguna Beach. The mixture of Craftsman and Cape Cod style house at Moss Point was built in 1917, for Col. Henry House, who was the brother of Col. Edward House. Col. Edward House was considered the man most responsible for getting Woodrow Wilson elected as President of the United States. Moss Point is also known for incredible tide pools and scuba diving.
