While Maisie lounges poolside, our little town makes a bit of news:

One of those banners towed above our beaches warned UCLA and NBA basketball star Reggie Miller to steer clear of married women.

My neighbor, Pam Anderson (we just saw her this morning, walking a cute golden retriever) apparently loves mobile home living. (She calls her place a one-room trailer but it's actually about 1,700 square feet, three bedrooms and, as the friend who remodeled and sold it to Pam has lovely taste, it's really quite nice inside.)

Point Dume State Beach is on the hit list for closure in the state's current budget fiasco.

And the city has picked a contractor for the bitterly disputed Legacy Park it's building on a vacant swath of land in the center of town.

Meanwhile, you can shop and do a good deed when you buy Heal the Bay's canvas tote at the Malibu Lumber Yard.
