One of my favorite museums to take the kids is the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center located in Balboa Park. There are so many interactive exhibits, the kids always have a blast and hopefully learn something along the way! One of my favorite areas in the museum for the little ones is Kid City. Kid City […]
Fitting Finish to a Fine Week at Torrey Pines
The grandstands surrounding the 18th hole on the Torrey Pines South Course were filled with spectators Sunday, hours before the leaders of the Farmers Insurance Open approached the final hole. As the day wore on, fans began crowding the ropes adjacent to the green and then along both sides of the fairway. By the time […]
Picture Perfect Day at Torrey Pines
Watching the world’s best golfers is what draws fans to the Torrey Pines Golf Course for the Farmers Insurance Open. The wide assortment of promotional booths, sponsor tents and other activities at the entrances and along some of the fairways is a pleasant surprise that makes the experience even more memorable. The Kodak booth and […]
Give ‘Em Some Sugar
Nothing says Valentine’s Day like a box of chocolates. But, despite your best intentions, a box of mass-produced Russell Stovers from the drug store says all the wrong things. Instead, let me play Cupid. I’ve got a few sweet arrows in my quiver that are sure-fire hits. Want a gift that’s as beautiful and unique […]
Sea of Spectators See What It’s All About
Fans packed the stands behind the 15th green on the South Course at Torrey Pines and lined the ropes that fence off the green and fairway as the group that included Tiger Woods, Rocco Mediate and Anthony Kim approached during Friday’s second round of the Farmers Insurance Open.

After spending the day at Torrey Pines for the Farmers Insurance Open, I joined a couple friends at the La Jolla Hilton […]
Tiger is the Talk of Torrey Pines
The last time Tiger Woods walked the grounds of the Torrey Pines Golf Course was during his 2008 U.S. Open playoff victory. It was just Woods, Rocco Mediate and about 30,000 fans who made the surroundings seem more like a rock concert than a golf tournament. Woods returned Wednesday morning — and so did the […]
Pop Goes the Meal
Pop up restaurants are here today and gone tomorrow. That’s because these eateries are designed for a limited run that allows chefs to flex their creative muscles and push the culinary envelope. Did you see last week’s ‘restaurant wars’ episode of Top Chef All Stars? The cheftestants were challenged to create a pop-up restaurant and the […]
5 to Try: Hot Highway 94 Finds
The Big Apple recently took a bite out of San Diego’s East County in an in-depth New York Post travel article, “Good times in San Diego.” Though they didn’t get to sample Julian’s famous apple pies (Big Apple & apple pies – how almost apropos), the travel editor DID get a taste of some lesser-known, […]
