Reunion 805: We Rise Together
By Misty Hall
Ventura County has gone through some trying times in recent years with the Thomas, Hill, and Woolsey Fires, the Montecito debris flows, as well as the Borderline Bar & Grill tragedy. But these events have revealed something profound about our VC friends and neighbors: we rise together. We’ve stepped up to take care of one another in myriad ways — donating money and supplies, offering our services (of every kind), and even just sharing a hug with someone who lost everything.
We discovered that we share a lot more than a geographical region. We share a genuine spirit of goodwill, and a true eagerness to be of service to one another.
Marc Whitman

Some architects are known for just one style. But Marc Whitman’s designs are, as he puts it, eclectic. “I design in most all styles: Modern, Spanish, Craftsman, Mission Revival,” he said. Yet somehow in this variety of styles, there is something distinctive, something undeniably, well, Whitman, about each of his designs.

El Viaje was inspired by architectural design of an Italian Luxury Villa where Old World Charm and the modern conveniences of every day life come together perfectly. As you enter through the gates to a private, secluded yard, you will love the mix of mature trees, the rose gardens, and the cozy seating areas.
Robin Williams
LIV Sotheby’s International Realty
By Misty Hall
I first became familiar with the name Robin Williams way back in the early 2000s when I was writing sports articles. Back then, I only knew him as the guy who consistently ranked at, or very near, the top of the local golf leagues and tournaments. These days, Robin still knows his way around the course better than most (although he’s humble about his skill), but you’re more likely to find him showing houses as a Realtor or hanging out with his daughter, Josie.
