Vision 2004, a long-awaited beauty boost to the quaint but aging area, won't be fully under- way until after the City Council finalizes d etails of a d eal with Cal- trans. But organizers a re n't wait- ing until J anuary, whe n they esti - mate the issue will be before the council.

The district is in the process of bu ying 30 n ew w ove n-metal benches. Workers have alread y re moved about 100 ficus trees and replaced them with about 100 king palms and a bout 90 Hong Kong orchid trees, which are now in bloom . Organizers say these are just the first visible signs of the Vision 2004 plan, which aims to revamp the villag e by its centenmaJ three years from now. •1t•s going to be a very speciaJ place when we're through,· Glas- gow said.

Dad patiently explained basic swfing techniques on shore and as we paddled out When it was time to catch a wave, he hopped off his board. came behind me and pushed while I paddled hard. Fortunately the combination worked well. I got to my knees and then pushed up to stand. Somehow J managed to ride the wave all the way in. When I paddled back out. my dad smiled and asked. •ttow did you do that?" to which I replied hon- estly, "I have absolutely no idea.

My dad came out and said, "You won't catch any waves way out here.· ·1 know,• I said with a smile. ·rm catching my breath, then 111 come back.· He nodded and headed back for more waves. When I ventured back in, Dad gave me more pointers. ·u you're scared by a mass of white water coming your way, you can turtle,• be said. I found out that that means you take a big breath, hold onto the board and flip it over you until the water passes over you. He started telling me something else, but stopped when be saw the panic on my face. •we don't have those conditions today, but it's good to know what to do,• he said lovingly. Miraculously I was able to catch some waves on my own. The morning seemed like a dream. But the reality is that God blessed me with an unforgettable time with my father. If my earthly father wanted to be with me and give me pointers about swfing, can you imagine bow eager our Heavenly Father is to be with us and give us pointers about life? And you can quote me on that 1\vo local churches plan festivals for Halloween in order to give tainilies a safe place to go YoungCllMg DAILY PILOT G hosts and goblins are not normally the province of area churches, but every Halloween a few establishments wel, come children to haunt their hallowed halls in order to provide a safe environment for trick- or-treating.

Doily Pilot The many shade~ of Gray. • Teacher, lifeguard Donny Gray is still having fun in both his worlds Danette Goua.t DAILY PILOT Separately Donny Gray is a dedi- cated lifeguard and a wonderful teacher. But when .his two lives come together -it's just remark- able. So much so that the Hunting- ton Beach resident was named sea- sonal lifeguard of the year in New- port Beach last week. ·w e don't have to look over his shoulder, he's just out there doing his duties to the best of his ability, but also training others out there to do their job to the best of their abil- ity,~ said fire Captain John Blauer who heads Newport Bedch's life- guard division. Though he is a sixth-grade physical education teacher at Sow- en Middle School in Huntington Beach, Gray still bun't given up his ftiSt job from high school. Dur- ing bis jUnior year tits fath\u, Don Gray Sr., a firefighter in Newport ~ach. suggested he take a job as a lifeguard. "My Dad suggested J do 1t in the summer, because it was really good money and betides I'd get to be at the beach all day,• Gray said. He took his dad's advice and hasn't looked back. After 16 years Gray's voice fills with e~cited ener- gy when be talks about his job as a lifeguard. "Do you know what I do,• be asked. "I drive th41 lifeguard boats -the big yellow ones. I've been doing that for 13 swnme.rs. That is an extremely exciting position because those boats are big and get to drive in waves in the surf line." But be said it's more than get- ting paid to hang out at the beach. "Some people like the medical Food Merchants OqJank Polenta i • Gnlic Basil • 1\lmalo Carfic • 'lnditiobal s • Olili Cimitro RfG.'UI 11az. assists, I like to rescue people who are drowning, and on the boat I'm right there,• he said. In the past year the 32-year-old has taken on more responsibilities. As be does with his students at Sowers and the athletes from the teams he coaches, Gray took the younger guards under his wing and began teaching them how to drive the boat. •As 1 grew older, I believe this is why they gave me the award, I've done a lot of training of future boat operators,• Gray said. ~It's a little outside my j~b description.• Gray does it without being asked, Blauer said, and he trains ·the young guards to the same superior level that Gray himself operates. • . •1t•s probably the t?est decision I ever made in my life,~ he said. "I've been doing it for 16 years, I'm with all my best friends and it's some of the best times I've ever had."

Moving the Market Place -also known as the swap meet -would be detrlmen- tal to business owners because they would lose much needed exposure, Askew said before the meet- ing. The Market Place is the source of a large amount of revenqe for the fairgrounds, second only to the annual fair. During a portion of the meeting dedicated specifi- cally to the Market Place, consultant Frank Haselton cleared up misconceptions about moving the shopping venue. • 1·u take responsibility for that misunderstanding,• Haselton said, commenting on the labeling of three pro- posed layouts that gave the impression the swap meet would be pushed back to the Arlington Boulevard area of the fairgrounds.

While the swap meet would not be required to move drutically, two of the three preUmlnary.. plant called for new bUUdingl to enaoacb upon 10% to 1•% of the cwrent Market Place and the removal ot the snack bar. Vendors protested even those al.lght changes, saying customen only know them based on their sped.fie loca- tion. •They know us for bow many spaces they walk from their car, or by a balloon that may bang near a booth. Moving us just 100 feet would be a hardship and cause strain on our busi· ness," said vendor Mike Ross. Board members also decided to find out if tnere are ways of moving the Orange County Fair's cami· val rides so vendors would not have to shut down during fair time. Member Deborah Car- dona said she was very sup- portive of talking to Ray Cammack Shows -which operate the rides for the fair -and asking if they would be willing lo move to the rear of the fairgrounds so the Market Place could remain open. Askew credited the strong showing of Market Place merchants for the favorable decision by board members. ·we came and represent- ed our asSoc:iation, as well as our businesses, and it really made them put a face to those who would be impact- ed by their decisions,• Askew said.

HORSES CONTINUED FROM A 1 able to take riding lessons because of the distance, said Jolly, a Newport Beach resident. "I love the closeness of this place,• Jolly said. Supporters of the equestrian c~nter made the same argument to the board of directors Thurs- day, finally convincing them to keep at least part of the center at the Costa Mesa location. •I came here thinking I was going to (support the option to remove the cen- ter entirely. J But after hearing the needs of the people here today, I hear a need to keep the Equestri- an Center here," said board member Jim Barich a.t Thursday's meeting. No trainers or boarders will be displaced by the cutbacks as the current center is running under capacity. But horse trainer Kathy Hobstetter said the eques- trian center bas had a moratorium on accepting new horses for boarding, which was placed on them by fairground manage- ment. •we haven't been giv- en the chance to prove bow successful we can be," Hobstetter said. While riders will still be able to board horses and take lessons at the fair- grounds, it is only a partial victory, said Wayne Blau- velt, who's daughter rides at Fox Point Fann. Blauvelt said he does- n't understand why the fair board needed to look off the site to create an expanded equestrian cen- ter.

Board President Curt Pringle said they will COO· tinue to pursue the El Toro option to create a larger facility with trails and more open space that more people can enjoy. The new equestnan site would be called The Ranch. Although it would be about 15 miles from the main campus, it would still be considered a part of the fairgrounds with all the revenue streams sttll coming to the same place. said fairgrounds general manager Seeley Bailey- Findley.

Pilot I WHAT'S UP CONTINUED FROM A 1 After Sept 11.. 1 ltarted to believe tbat there was a •war dividend.. that perbape the brutal attack Oil die Wodd 1hlde Center bad knoc:Qd sane seme into us. And as much as I didn't like the idea of reaping this dividend on the souls cl more than 5,000 dead in New York. Washington and other points SQlttered about the country, or gaining even a small measure of satisfaction on the backs~ the brave men and women of our anned foroos, there is no denying that the Sept. 11 attack and the cur- rent conflict have changed us. In New York. my brother, Michael. reported to me a few days ago that people in the city were still subdued, still the Dr. Jekyll to the city's usual Mr. Hyde. But 1 got the sense that they were numb rather than undergoing any any life- changing experience. 1 hope I'm wrong. but then I've always believed that New Yorkers got a bum mp on the rudeness image. We are not shopping as much, that I can tell you. 1\vo Saturdays ago, r went to South Coast Plaza to be a real Amer- ican and buy something, and I found a prime parking spot right near the entrance. l lotel occupancy is down, restau- rants are hurting. and all' trav- el is so cheap they're practical- ly paying us to fly. Some of Uus LS from the effects of the economy that was slowing before the attacks, but most is not. And while I don't wish for any busi- ness to fold, I can't help but point out that most of the peo- ple who aren't shoppmg. trav- eling or going to restaurants are doing something very good instead They're staying home. We should stay home more. Businesses should tum orI I their ligJw at ~ht when they doM . .Water ltioWd not be used to hole down~ We lhOOld slow down oo the Sail~ Freeway and let otbers in our lane, even if they're not signaling, 10 they can get to the mall to be a good Amerlam. We mould say "please,• "thank you• and "I'm sony" more than we have'been. We should spend more time with our famllies. We should spend part of eech day giving than.ks. And perhaps it's time to capitalize on Su~r Jim Silva's comment Tuesday that we gtve the El Toro back to the Marines. •11 I could do anything with that facility, I would give it back to the Marines,• Silva said. That. folks, is an idea whose time has come. Silva wants to give it back for national sea.ui- ty reasons. I want to give it bade because our time is up. and we don't deselve it either as an airport. a park or a weed field. El Toro is a peace divi- dend we should mark "return to sender" as a war dividend. And I find it remarkable that our local "big three" politi- cians, Reps. Dana Rohrabacher and Chris Cox and Assembly- man John Campbell, have not jwnped on this idea like a chicken on a worrn. What a noble exit strategy to get this monkey off their backs. Here's hoping we don't squander our war dividends. Here's hoping we'll continue to remember each day that people are fighting for our right to be free. And here's hoping that two years from now. when my daughter becomes a teenager, she won't have to live with today's Walter Cronkite flashing body counts at dinner time. • SffVE SMmt is a Costa Mesa resident and freelance write<.

To fully appreciate a Pin- ter play, audiences must learn to divorce themselves from the anticipation of such minutiae as character development and motiva- tion.

The setting may be Lon- don, but the abnosphere is pure Addams Family - dark and foreboding with its borders ragged, as though someone had ripped a huge piece out of the scenery. The structure isn't the only element that's been irreparably damaged; its inhabitants carry even deeper scars. Mac (W.
