One day I hope to live there. A few cool places to go in Laguna are: Thousand Steps, Treasure Island, Crystal Cove, Forest, and of course there are a ton of art galleries everywhere....

Why do you think I work in the restaurant? Don't go out  and order a a double patron margarita plus 15$ meal, and then tell me you're broke!
