FOX paid for a cropduster to spray for mosquitos just before they started shooting. The crew had been cussing for days, but when the plane came by, no bugs for the whole 2 weeks of shooting.
Just after the shoot, of course, Keith hit. Then it rained a frog strangler for weeks. Everybody who knew anybody was begging for that spray plane to come by cuz we were worried about disease. Finally came by and we got some relief.
Mata Chica, like most everyone else lost some nice palms. They have re-planted some medium and small ones...Also royal palms, which other folks have done and will be a nice addition to North Beach.
From all comments, the photography was good. They had fabulous weather the whole time they were shooting.
