Thank You For Your Business, Referrals,

Support & (Thank You to Our Military)!

 

July is a busy month in San Diego, it's when

our weather becomes infamously perfect, we

get invaded by tourists and "Zonies"...

(we annually get an influx of AZ residents that

escape their 115 degrees for our milder 75-85

degrees and we have lots of 4th of July events

that kick off a whole plethora of July events.
