My best gig like that was down at Laguna Niguel. Five days at the Ritz
Carlton with a $350-a-night (ten years ago) room all to myself. (I did
have a roomie the first day, but something came up at home, and for the
rest of the shoot he had to drive clear back up to L.A. every night.)
On the heights above the ocean. Beeyootiful.
