Well it seems official that summer is forcing its way into our lives as May starts. Well don’t let the hot weather keep you inside and run up that A/C!!!! We have fun inside and we have fun outside. What is awesome is you live here in the IE and you have Inland Empire Explorer to show you the best place to go in the IE.
Don’t forget its fight weekend between Mayweather and Pacquiao and there is no better place to watch the fight then at our friends at My NY Pizza. When you’re ordering tell them that IE Explorer sent you.
