October 2023 San Diego Calendar of Events THANK YOU! Everyone who participated in the Clothing Drive for Father Joe's Villages really helped make a difference for so many unhoused people in San Diego! I am in awe of the generosity of my community!    Can you believe it's October already! I'm grateful for the cooler evenings and I'm looking forward to the coming season of celebrations.

Don't miss the Surf Dog Surf-a-thon, the 51st Annual Barona Pow-wow, and La Mesa's popular Octoberfest (I know! Already!)   If you know anyone who might be interested in receiving this event calendar every month, please have them sign up at this  link.   September - Ponder this,  “All the months are crude experiments, out of which the perfect September is made.” — Virginia Woolf.

The days are now noticeably getting longer and while it may still be chilly for us, pretty soon San Diego's long sunny summer will be here.  February also means that many of us are now gearing up for tax season. As a former accounting professional and a current real estate agent, I am here to help. Feel free to reach out.
