I just got this crazy idea that I should spend the last two weeks of May driving to San Diego and back, and stopping to visit everyone I know along the way.
I would recommed a trip like that. I did it in 1998. I did it partially last summer (LA to Sacramento and back). Good to experience new things. I went with Laurie and we had a blast.
If you choose to do it, I would be happy to recommend where to go and what to see on your way to your friend's houses.
