Hard to believe that August has arrived… which means there is only one month of summer left! With entertaining, traveling, adventures and fun abounding in San Diego, it will be hard to see it go. Luckily we still have one more month of ‘official’ summer. But it’s not too late to make the most of these weeks. Here are a few ideas to pay homage to what’s left of the precious days:
7. Go to a Padres Game
6. Go to the beach
5. Go to the Annual Julian Star Fest
4. See a Summer Blockbuster
3. Take a Mini-Vacation
2. Spend a day outside in the sun ( with sunscreen of course)
1. Plan a “Last Days of Summer” party with Ranch Events

Let me recommend Ranch Events as one of the best Wedding Caterers in San Diego.
I would like to thank Bernardo from Ranch Events who helped us through the whole process of getting our wedding catered. They took care of everything we needed including lighting and all other setup and teardown, and also provided the cake. The food was great (buffet-style) and definitely met our expectations from the tasting. Bernardo walked us through our site (the Japanese Friendship Garden) and was the captain all night. Very easy and also reasonably priced.
