It’s pretty common for visitors to make a point to stop at In-N-Out. But, San Diego’s bevy of burger […]
Learn to Surf Like a Diva
San Diego’s famed Surf Diva Surf School is the world’s number one surf school for women and I was lucky enough to brave the waters during a one-hour lesson. For me, this was a major step. I know I live in San Diego where surfing is like a form of breathing, but I’m from Nor […]
Living the Good Life
Every smart husband circles two dates on the calendar each year. Not the Super Bowl and your fantasy baseball draft, I’m talking about the smart husbands.
