Poor Paso Robles.. That was a beautiful little place
Edited on Mon Dec-22-03 04:16 PM by SoCalDem
My son had an annual soccer weekend torunament in San Luis Obispo, and we always spent hours roaming around Paso Robles.. It was a restored "old town", and had so many wonderful little businesses..

I feel for those people trying to recover from this quake.. and at Christmas time too.:(

So sad

Lots of history may be lost after today.. These links are good ones to see what it "used" to be like..

1. It is a cute town and I heard the tower came down and someone is trapped
in the rubble...Cleita posted it on another thread. Are you watching TV?

2. I hadn't heard about damage there
But PR was the final home of Colleen Moore, my favorite silent film actress and the inspiration for my user ID. I was last up there interviewing her former secretary in 2001. It is such a wonderful little town - I have to get more info on this. Thanks, SoCalDem and Teena for the head's up. :-(
