Observing San Diego County
Here's an inland California tour to tuck away for spring or fall, when the weather is cooler: a country ramble through forests and farmland in northern San Diego County, plus a visit to lofty Palomar Observatory.

WEEKEND ESCAPE
An urban pulse in San Diego
We had left L.A. on Interstate 5 and were near-ing Encinitas when the weekend really started going south.

WEEKEND ESCAPE
Baby Steps in the Wilds of San Diego
Somewhere between the 500-pound baby rhinoceros, the 5-foot-tall baby giraffe and the litter of red river hogs, I became very grateful that I am a human mommy. Neither my Danny Mac nor my Fiona came into the world placidly, but at least no hoofs were involved.

WEEKEND ESCAPE
Trolling San Diego by Trolley
No vehicle deserves a break more than my little red pickup truck. In 15 years, it has ferried me safely over 271,000 miles of the planet. So it was pure joy to check the truck into the parking garage at the Bristol San Diego hotel for a weekend last month. This not only gave it a rest, but also left me and my companion, Marc, free to explore the city by trolley, using minimal shoe leather.
