I’ve bumped into so many fabulous Palisadians sharing amazing stories after publishing the “Legend of Annabella & the Dolphins” in the September 14 edition of the Post. Palisadians of all ages told me about when they walked on the bricks of the Dolphin Fountain at Palisades Village Green over the years‚ bringing them astoundingly good luck in the next seven days.

If you’ve got kids, you may want to have them walk the bricks on the Dolphin Fountain. Here are a few of these stories I’ve heard …

Bill McGregor

I remember it like it was yesterday.

My wife, Tanis, and I had always wanted to live in Pacific Palisades because it had become our community over the 20 years we had raised our family. We didn’t live here—but it was the home of our school, our church and all of our friends.

The Village Green, where the Dolphin Fountain is, it’s been known that you could make a wish there and your dream could come true.

I went there to make my wish—a wish for me and my family.

I walked around the bricks. To the left, to the right and then to the left. I whispered the last two lines of the “Palisades Song” three times in a row—“I live in the greatest town, Pacific Palisades.”

And as I stood there on those bricks—sure enough, I heard the faint, sweet sound of those two dolphins.

The very next day, my wife and I were hiking up the trail at the end of Casale Road, and at the end of the last house, there was a “for sale” sign. My wife said she would give anything if we could ever live there. We always thought it was the beginning of the public land, that someone must have put the sign up there as a joke.

I called the Realtor. It wasn’t a joke. We made an offer and, after years and years, that was the beginning of Pacific Palisades becoming our home.

Dreams can come true.

Julie Seltzer

I was a senior at Pali High. I walked on the bricks to the left, to the right, to the left. I whispered the last two lines of our town song. And, no doubt about it, I heard those happy dolphins.

Four days later, I got the lead role in the Pali High school play, “Guys and Dolls!”

On top of that, I had the biggest crush on Paul, the first violinist in our orchestra pit. And when I sang, “If I Were a Bell,” let’s just say he went “ding, dong, ding!”

Brent Wood

Brent lives in the next town over, married to Bella Aire. They have two delightful kids, Holly and Wood.

Whatever you do, don’t walk to the right, to the left and then to the right. I made the horrible mistake and walked the wrong way. I heard thunder. Five days later, I got dolphin morbillivirus—a rare disease only dolphins get.

You do not want to get morbillivirus. Trust me.

You may find Brent walking around town. He’s always scratching himself.
