Down south is the new awesome

Last weekend I went on a road trip with Robyn,


Shawn,


and Wayne.


Robyn and Shawn just bought a new Hybrid they wanted to test out on the open highway and our good friend Dustin was directing his first play down in San Diego.

You might remember that we like mix cd challenges
here on the new awesome. Shawn also likes mix cd challenges and he proposed we have a little mix cd challenge on our drive down. This is my ipod playing the winning mix. My ipod didn't even know it was playing the winning mix when I took this picture!


We stayed with Jed who is so sophisticated.


We got to see Mandy and meet her awesome fiance Ryan.


We got to see Dustin and Melissa!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


We got to see the play Dustin directed!


Who knew we had so many great friends in San Diego!
Me, Dustin, Wayne, Shawn, Robyn, Jed, Matt, Amy, Mandy, Greg and Melissa.


We also ate mega breakfasts at Coco's with Dave and Greg.



I have known Dave and Greg for almost forever.


Here's all of us at breakfast standing next to a special tree that is growing something funny.


Dear San Francisco,
Thanks for letting us visit southern california for the weekend and still being so nice and beautiful when we got home.
Love,
Betsy
