If you haven’t been to a symphony in recent years, you may be surprised to see how it’s changed. Unlike the stuffy, high-falutin” settings of yesteryear, the San Diego Symphony is vibrant and exciting, with something special to offer all members of the family.
To illustrate what this looks like, you can download a video from their site [...]

Frozen crops in San Diego? If you don’t live in San Diego county, you may find it hard to believe that we consider this a cold winter. I know - we’re just soft. We’re often blessed with summer days in the middle of what we laughingly refer to as winter, and we whine when we [...]
