Bruce Brown R.I.P.
Bruce Brown’s name is permanently scribed into the concrete deck at this close to perfect right had kidney, so Ozzie coined it as Bruce Brown’s pool. I was fortunate to hit this one a few times with some good dudes. Unfortunately, the house is now on the market, been fully re-landscaped and the pool transformed from a skaters paradise to a desert oasis.
