June Latitude Ripe for the Picking
The June issue of Latitude 38 is on its way around the Bay a little earlier than usual. Thanks to the long Memorial Day Weekend, and an early deadline, we’re able to bring you this juicy issue a few days before the more-typical 1st of the month delivery date. We’re guessing you’ll devour it before…

Luckily, they were able to set their secondary anchor before any damage occurred, but it scared the living daylights out of…
