a few weeks back when i was visiting my best adventuremate Gan in Nipomo, i had the FABULOUS opportunity to pit-stop (approximately 20 minutes after i started) on the drive home in Santa Maria and visit the other SWOPE clan. (my dad has 1 brother: martin clifford aka. pete and that's it folks. they're the only other Swopes i know [well other than the Tyler Swope that I met in Missouri while visiting Em which is just CREEPY since Tyler Swope is the guy standing RIGHT NEXT TO ME in the above picture!]) Swope cousins are HYSTERICAL and SO NICE. we have always lived several hours apart and have never gotten to spend nearly enough time together - but they are and forever will be family and ILOVETHEM! We didn't have a lot of time (i was really supposed to be driving home - it was a holiday weekend and i had the fear of major traffic) but we grabbed some cold stone (where Tyler works) together and chatted a bit before hugging and saying goodbye. HOWEVER, since Gan's family officially bought a house up there now, there is potential for LOTS more visits which is GRAND because the older i get the more convinced i am that family matters BIG TIME and these people - well - they're mine!
