Just when things seemed worst, dawn broke and Mrs. Budd met Father O’Malley who offered a hand of mercy and the use of part of the church site of St. Thomas for her relocation. It was decided to buy a trailer and set up shop again in the parking lot near the ruins of the church. A necessary, and necessarily thrown together, document was signed by city officials and the Driest giving her permission to do so.

Before any further steps could be taken, Providence (remember him?) shone forth again and the present location of Budd’s was found. By sheer force of courage 10 years of lost investments began the slow process of being revived. Mrs. Budd proudly states that, “on October 15 we were the first store on the coast fo reopen. Much of the carpenter work we did ourselves.”
