With the unusual heat we’ve been experiencing here in North County San Diego, you wouldn’t know it, but summer is coming to an end. The kids are returning to school (August 18th) which means you can return to the beach and actually find a space to drop your towel in the sand and not every wave is a party wave. On Fire Mountain we’ll use any reason to celebrate, so join your neighbors at the annual Fire Mountain End of Summer Bar-B-Q, August 24th starting at 4:00 p.m. Meet us at the cul-de-sac on Avocado and Dunstan – bring something to share, something to throw on the grill, something to sip and don’t forget a chair to park yourself. We encourage you to use recyclable/reusable items and to bring a canned or boxed item to donate to the food drive. 
If you own a local business or charity, feel free to bring some information and we’ll have a table available to display the goods. See you there!

The 10th Annual San Diego Restaurant Week starts next week, January 19-24, 2014, and while we’d like to see more, there are a few local restaurants participating with special menus and tastings. Restaurant week is a great opportunity to try some of the restaurants you might not normally frequent. The prix fixe menus offer multiple courses and are usually well worth the visit. No tickets or passes are required. Food lovers may simply dine out at as many participating restaurants as they like during San Diego Restaurant Week. Here are a few of the Oceanside and Carlsbad restaurants participating this year:
If you’re in another part of the county, check out the San Diego Restaurant Week web site to find a participating restaurant.
