Every once in a while you just get lucky. That's what happened to Debbie and me when we chanced upon Anthony's a little over a year ago. We stopped in for lunch with our friends Dan and Melanie. The food was superb, the prices were very reasonable and we have been

Temecula & Murrieta Business Spotlight! - 09/21/07 05:51 PM
I think the good guys deserve recognition. Too often you hear stories about poor service or bad business. I'd like to turn the tables. There are a bunch of teriffic business owners out there. When someone shines so brightly that they need to be acknowledged, I would like to point them

We leave tomorrow morning for the beautiful Pacific Northwest. My sister and her family have a cabin on a remote island in the San Juans. It's so remote, in fact, they have asked me to refrain from mentioning its name. Those who live here are fiercely protective of their privacy. Needless

Monday I went to Cali Camp in Topanga Canyon to take pictures for an organization called Safety Harbor Kids. They provide guidance and support for Los Angeles County kids who are parentless and/or in need. Their Labor Day picnic touched my heart more than I can say. I think these faces
