 LAGUNA BEACH • 1960
 
 
   
  
    Looking
 south on Pacific Coast Highway in the days before the I-5 
freeway.  I think Eiler Larsen -- the Laguna Beach Greeter -- took 
up his post 
at the other end of town.  A 1960 Ford station wagon is about to 
make the turn south, while a snazzy two-tone '56 Chevy is parked at the 
curb in the foreground.  I think the Lemon Chiffon beauty in front 
of it is a Thunderbird, but I can't tell the year.  I have an early
 memory of a school bus trip to Knott's Berry Farm (before there was a 
Disneyland) and stopping at a bus station perhaps a block south of here
 so the passengers could get a snack and use the bathroom.
