A good friend of mine, who grew up in both Coronado and LA, recently showed me a video of her as a baby. When she was living in Coronado, her family resided in the Shores - La Princesa Tower. They enjoyed their beloved home at the Shores and appreciated it …

I woke up this morning when it was still pitch black out. I had to catch an early flight heading east, toward the cold and snow. I rarely see Coronado during these hours and while I rode in the car to the airport I silently acknowledged to myself how glad …

One of the fabulous things about living in Coronado is that you can hunt for a fresh meal in the ocean or the bay. I’m not sure if fishing is for everyone but I’m pretty sure there are lots of people out there that appreciate a good catch. This sport …

If you choose to live at the Shores then you have chosen wisely. Not only are you half a step away from the beach but also several pools. Yes, that’s right, several. There are three separate pools that sit on the Shores campus including a community center literally right across …

When I was a kid, my family had a dog that absolutely loved to run wild. The minute she had her chance to escape, so took it. Trying to catch her was near impossible - she ran with the speed of the wind, ears pulled back, eyes wide, her nose …
