It's hurricane season, and there's one part of Florida that feels so safe from hurricanes that it's offering a "Storm Free Guarantee." That would be Amelia Island Plantation, which promises the same rate on a return trip if the first is disrupted by, I don't know, Hanna. Plus $100 credit at the resort's restaurants. It's been more than 40 years since Amelia Island, off the northeast coast of Florida, experienced hurricane conditons. I remember in St. Augustine a few summers ago, people telling me that hurricanes just don't come ashore there either. We shall see.

Every time I open an envelope that's got "Tower Theater-Miami Dade College" written in the top left corner I find something interesting inside. The latest was a notice about a guitar concert by Dr. Rene Gonzalez (the chair of the guitar department at the University of Miami), Jose Alfredo Fernandez, and graduate students. It's June 26 at 7 pm, with a reception at 6:30. Afterwards you can have a nice dinner on Calle Ocho. Call 305-649-2960.

If you're going to San Francisco (or if you're already there) the city is presenting free concert and film series this summer. These include the Del Monte Square Film Festival (Aug 3-24); Film Night in the Park (now through October); Golden Gate Park Band (every Sunday through Oct. 12); and Jewels in the Square which takes place at Union Square and features, among other groups, the "original Spanish Surf Mexican Gypsy Pirate Pop Band" (through the end of October). You know it's summer in San Francisco because the film festival notes that hot beverages will be available for purchase.
