Kidnapping Andrea and Ferg

"We're just trying to avoid Bridge traffic," we told Andrea & Sean. They were starting to get a little anxious when we kept heading way south.

Meanwhile Mandy went all out decorating a hotel room with Cameron, Erik & Ari in Santa Cruz.

As part of their surprise we took them to the Mystery Spot. The general consensus... nausea.

Playing pin the engagement earring on Andrea.


And cake!

It was a very random night involving the Santa Cruz boardwalk and arcade plus a bowling alley/karaoke dinner.

Palm Spring Getaway

Charity, Bechtel and a few of their friends rented a house in Palm Springs over President's weekend. A 50's tiki theme dominated the house.

We pretty much just lounged around the pool and enjoyed the sun, warm weather and Mai Tais. We also hit a casino or two during the weekend.



Half the group went to Joshua Tree for the day.

Weekend in San Diego

Dana was attending a conference in San Diego so I flew down for the weekend.

Renee took me to a fun bar in her neighborhood and we met up with Dana in the gaslamp district.

Dana felt the call of the mechanical bull.

I spent the afternoon at the San Diego Zoo before heading back to San Francisco. Koala bears!!!
