Recently, the building owner of Historic City Hall (101 S El Camino Real) reached out to us to aid in his search for new uses for his iconic property. He had correctly heard that quixotic contrivances were our business specialty within the San Clemente Chamber of Commerce, and we readily welcomed his enlistment for this endeavor.

Located on arguably one of the best business lots in downtown San Clemente, Historic City Hall commands a view down Del Mar, with the sightline stretching beyond to the ocean and horizon. Unlike its exhilarating position at the top of town, not much excitement has made its way from the exterior to the interior in many moons. Also, what’s up with everyone saying this location never was city hall historically anyway!?...…continue reading

Of the “7 Wonders of the Ancient World,” only one remains today: the Great Pyramid of Giza. The other six have been lost to history, with the occasional rubble heap left behind.

To be fair, the Great Pyramid started as a stone pile and has dutifully remained as such ever since. The rest of those once irreplaceable locations are essentially of no relevance today.

Recently, San Clemente’s very own “Wonder” of the not-so-ancient world, Casa Romantica, nearly turned into a pile of stones.

Coastal cliffside instability under the Casa led to two major landslides in recent months, causing significant damage to the estate, disruption to railroad service on the tracks below, and uncertainty about the future of this nationally registered historic site...…continue reading

Read Our Latest Column: "Vote With Your Brain, But Not If We Don't Agree."

Fall is in the air, pumpkin-everything is everywhere, we only have to complain about e-bikes before and after school hours now, and Election season is upon us.

Every couple of years, we experience this special time of unity and civil enthusiasm, where everyone easily agrees on the solutions we all intrinsically know are best for the issues we all universally agree are, indeed, issues.

But since we have orbited about 185 million miles since the last election, we put together this super simple and easy-to-follow guide to refresh our collective memories on how we know what we know and why we can know anything at all, resulting in who we should all vote for of course..…continue reading

The San Clemente Chamber of Commerce has announced its official candidate endorsements for the 2022 San Clemente City Council election. Aaron Washington and Victor Cabral have been selected for this honor; the Chamber says to vote for Victor and Aaron!

Aaron Washington is a Navy veteran who served more than 35 years in the military and is running on a platform of proven leadership experience, a focus on public safety, and supporting small businesses.

With an eye on the importance of our beachside economy, Aaron’s down-to-earth grassroots approach and decades of military service make him a driven and effective leader to ensure a thriving community under his care.

He looks to improve the functioning of our local government operations to save our town money while addressing long, ongoing issues such as solving the need for a hospital and accessible emergency medical care and managing a resolution to the complexities around homelessness in San Clemente.

Victor Cabral is an experienced attorney and executive business leader, having worked for the U.S. Department of Justice and major national companies, including as vice president of public policy for Verizon..…continue reading

Welp, we’re all gonna die. As a matter of fact, some of you will read this after I am dead, so hello to my internet stalkers. It’s not that I’m dying with urgency, just passively like the rest of you. I currently plan to be still “here” to write the next bi-monthly column - although the writing process is so stressful it may actually be the kinetic death of me. But come on, I’m not the only person who Googles someone when I see a local obituary or tragic news story. And i.…continue reading
