SAN DIEGO -- For some, it is easy to forget the world offers an infinite number of playgrounds beyond the borders of 92103. Yes, Uptown has many charms, but sometimes you may find yourself craving a type of adventure that cannot be satiated by visiting the latest restaurant or wine bar. This is where the Men’s Ski and Snowboard Club comes in.

The club, more commonly referred to as SAGA, has chapters located throughout California. And although the name implies it is exclusive to men who love winter sports, that assumption barely scratches the surface.

SAN DIEGO -- Don’t let the “French” in The French Gourmet scare you.

So says Michel Malecot, owner and chef.

If you take a moment to glance over the menu, you’ll quickly learn why. The current breakfast and lunch offerings include Eggs Benedict, Sweet and Savory Crêpes, Chicken Pot Pie and Shrimp Scampi. You may also be pleasantly surprised to learn their three-course $25.95 prix fixe dinner comes with options like filet mignon, fresh catch of the day, and even some vegetarian dishes.

There are few of us who wouldn’t enjoy more time -- time to relax, time to spend with our loves ones, or time to just get away and escape for a few hours. Unfortunately, there are so many pesky things that seem to get in the way of that. Like the job, for example. And perhaps more annoyingly -- all those little tasks and errands that eat up our time when we’re not chained to an office.

The good news is that help is available, and if you can relate to any of the aforementioned, a call to WMSE Concierge may be something to consider.

There are few who haven’t dreamed of going to Hawaii. Perhaps you’re considering surprising your better half with a trip for your anniversary. Maybe you’ve received an unexpected bonus or raise, and are contemplating a weekend getaway to celebrate the influx of extra funds.

Regardless as to your reason for wanting to embark on an island adventure, Maui Sunseeker LGBT Resort is one Hawaiian destination you won’t want to miss.
