YOUR ALGORITHM FOR A BETTER NIGHT OUT.
OCT 05, 2026 · ISSUE NO. 6
“Good morning, Bay.”
I hope you enjoyed one of last weeks events and you’re ready for more action
If you’re new here, hello & welcome! I hope you find something you enjoy along the way. And thank you for joining.
From Fleet Week and night markets to fall festivals, good food, local makers, culture (which I love about our little Bay Area, we have such amazing diversity), and a little Oktoberfest fun, there’s no shortage of reasons to get out of the house.
I hope this week’s 8 picks inspire you to try somewhere new, make some plans, and enjoy everything happening around us.
Check out edition #6, and get off your devices a little 💙
