WHAT IS CHRISTMAS?
This time of year in America we drag out our Santa statues, erect decorated pine trees, hang twinkling lights and hear songs like “Jingle Bells” and "Santa Claus is Coming To Town”. Parents tell their little ones about a holly-jolly, supra-human being that flies throughout the world in one night, bestowing gifts on "nice" behaving children. Christmas truly is the season of wonder, joyousness and giving, but where does it come from & why do we celebrate it? History traces the

THIS PLACE CALLED HOME- Part 1
Part 1: History of Kearney Lodge MHP Our beloved San Diego seems like an age-old place in history, but it wasn't incorporated as a city until 1850. Early development was mostly in Old Town and coastal spots; Clairemont and Kearney Mesa was nothing but scrub-brush canyon. Following WWII, cities saw a surge in population that demanded housing. A G.I. bill stimulated residential construction (mostly by privateers), which is how the teeny-tiny town of Clairemont began in 1949. I
