Having grown up in the OC, I'm very sad to see what's happened in Laguna Beach. Laguna is probably one of my favorite places in Southern California in that it's filled with artists and has a small community feel to it; I always feel at home there.
It must be both frightening and heartbreaking to see the home you live in destroyed by nature. I'm sure that proceeds from both the Sawdust Festival and the Pageant of the Masters will go towards helping those who have lost what they have taken years to build.
I'm sure the queens at The Boom Boom Room throw in a helping, perfectly manicured hand as well.
A very sad time for many in the Blue Bird Canyon area, especially for a lady who's picture and quote appeared on the front page of the OC Register today. She said "Now we have to buy clothes! Clothes and make-up! All we have are the clothes on our backs!" This may have been taken out of context by the OCR, but the context fits Laguna Beach.
