Eiler Larsen made this artist colony his “Greeting Corner” of the world giving all a friendly wave and a warm smile. He became known as Laguna’s official Greeter. Thanks to the sculptor Guy Angelo Wilson for transforming the 800 year old mendacino redwood into the likeness of Laguna’s remarkable greeter.

Thank You stranger!!! In the above imkage he seems to be looking at me, with my camera, and in the next shot, he is in the frame. It makes this photo-set very special for me.
