A VISIT WITH EARL, JANE & PEACHES HAMNER

We had the privilege of visiting and working with Earl Hamner once again yesterday. Earl joked and said, "It feels good to be acting again."

Earl, Jane & Peaches ( their Pug) are enjoying the beautiful view from their home in Laguna Beach after several pipes decided to give way to some tree roots at their home in Studio City. The ocean breeze seems to have been exactly what the doctor ordered. Earl's daughter, Caroline Hamner, said "It seems that something good has come of something bad."

We were elated to see Earl sitting up at his computer and making his way through the house. It was a testament to our prayers being answered.

He looks good and the view is lovely!

That's good to hear, he's doing good. I love the view. Seeing the sunrise or sunset. Will be so beautiful to see.
