Hey Everybody!

Hey Everybody!
The specifics for the reunion this summer will be out pretty soon as well as the invitations, so please continue to be patient. Natalie and I just need to check a few things with Billy first. One more semester and I will finally have that MA degree!! I am applying to PhD programs and that is about all the news that I have. My life is still about school for the most part, not much has really changed. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everybody.
Miles.

Happy Holidays

Hey, noticed no one dropping info on the blog as of late, so I'd just like to wish y'all a happy holiday. Nothing major to report here, just grateful for friends past and present. Love y'all and hope to make the reunion in Cisco.

Hey everyone! Just wanted to pass on our big news-- we're moving to Vegas at the end of the school year. Rik got a job with the firm he was hoping for, so we're off to new things!
It seems like most of the SLC crowd is dispersing this year-- Jenny Rouse and family to Alaska, Jay Sheely and his wife to Seattle, Kirby Wilson (was Chavez) and his wife down to Southern Utah and now us. Gamyr will have to hold down the fort!

High Altitude Theatre

Hello out there in the real world! Thought I'd give you all an opportunity to see how we do things at 8200 feet. If you would like to see photo's of the show's we have done in Centennial go to www.myspace.com/dramabums . You can even see what I would look like as a soldier in Her Majesty's Army.
I hope all is well with everyone... Bliss

Hi Matt, I just checked the blog today June 30. Sorry I missed you. I was in a show all last week so a trip to Dallas wouldn't have been possible. But thanks for thinking of us. Wishing you all the best. Thanks, Billy

Visiting Dallas Jun 23-27

Billy, Colleen, and Nate,

I'll be attending an IT training seminar in Dallas (Irving) from Monday June 23rd, to Friday June 27th. I don't think I will have enough time to travel to Cisco, and certainly wouldn't expect anyone to drive the couple hours each way to see me. But... If any of you just happen to be in Dallas, during that time, it would be great to see you. My trainings are daily from 9a-5p, and I leave friday night around 7p.

If luck would have it... I can be found at:
Wingate Inn DFW
8220 Esters Blvd., Irving TX.
972-929-4600 (hotel reception)
702-335-1011 (my cell)

Hey Everybody!
I just wanted to give a reminder to anyone who has not yet done so and who is interested in the summer 2009 WWC Theatre Reunion to please get your contact info to either myself or Natalie Burgess. We have quite a list of interested alumni. The planning will start more in-depth this fall. Talk to you all later.

Greetings Earth Creatures...

Hello, all,
It has been way too long since I was here. Life is odd at 7200+ feet. I am still running a Theatre in Centennial Wyoming, a town which sounds a lot like Cisco. We just finished an Evening of One Act Plays. It was cool, we did K2 which shook up some of the Grey Hairs...
We are about to do "The Foreigner". If anyone would like to spend some time in the Beautiful Mountains of Southeastern Wyoming, we are looking for an Adjudicator to come. We have twice taken a show to RMTA and have won the Community Theatre Acting Awards 3 out of the last 4 years. It's great to see the RMTA bunch. Tony Mannen and Xan Johnson both send their regards.
More later. I hope all is well with all. Anyone in the Laramie area, I'm in the book.

Best wishes,
Bliss and a 13 year old spotted dog Iago

Hey All,

Dan Matthews, how's it goin man? Jabin Chartrand is trying to get an e-mail address or regular mailing address for you so you might drop him a line if you get a chance.

How is everyone else?

This is Nate Woods. I'm still here in Cisco with Billy and Colleen havin' a good time.

Everythings clickin' along pretty well here. I have a new dog that is a lot of fun, her name is Zep (or Pat or Shithead or hey you etc.). I'm just kidding I don't often call her Shithead, she just looks like (and sometimes acts like) the dog from "The Jerk".

Well that's about it, I hope ya'll are doin' well.

Rock On,
-Nate

Hi everybody! We're still in Salt Lake, waiting for Rik to finish law school so we can try somewhere new. He got elected editor in chief of law review, so we're not expecting to see much of him over the next year. Trish is still teaching high school, but has decided this is her last year of it--this is great news. :) The boys are doing well-- David is 9 and taking both musical theater and breakdance classes, and London is 10 months-- he can say "uh oh" and is just starting to learn to walk.
Rik got a job at a firm in helena, so we'll be up there for the summer-- should be fun, David is really excited for his second summer at Grandstreet.
We saw Dierdre and Desert Dance Theater perform at Trish's high school a couple of days ago-- it really made us feel sentimental. There are so many people we've lost touch with over the years.

Thinking of you all,
Rik, Trish, David and London Wade

HiDeeHo Good Neighbors!

So I just created a new Burger Blog to record my top burgers, and remembered the WWC Blog so I thought I would chime in! I read through the archive and MAN it makes me miss Theatre.. Hanging lights by my toes and hanging out more in "Limbo!" What I wouldn't give to spend the week (or more... lots, lots more) hanging lights and listening to Bob.

SO here is a quick update on me... still married (just celebrated the big 5 yr) and I have two kids... Aiden and Ellie, both who are as rambunctious and inquisitive as their mom. I currently am working with Wells Fargo I work with Diversity initiatives with Human Resources, and doing some work with construction loans.
I did just meet a guy in my neighborhood who has dimmer boards, a handful of lights, and some pretty great sound equipment... hmmmm the possibilities!
Though the Burger Blog is a little under construction, feel free to take a glance and if you are in or near the Salt Lake area, I have some great suggestions for a great burger! There will be an honorable mentions for Broadway Burger and Cruely J's... so keep an eye out! Feel free to post your favorite burgers too! I will have my point system up soon... so feel free to mark yours and send them in! =)

Oh! And Billy.... you and Colleen look Great! Wow! =)

Hi Folks, long time no blog. Well Colleen and I have been doing very well down here in Texas.

Colleen is now the President of Cisco Junior College and I am the Director of the Performing Arts Department. I direct straight plays during the year with students and run the Big Country Dinner Theatre, a small professional theatre company located in the first ever Hilton Hotel during the summers. We have lots of cats, 2 dogs, and about 30 cows. Everything moves a little slower in Cisco - people just seem to slow down and take a little more time with taking care of each other. It is sort of like Mayberry with a little warmer weather. As you see with Miles's post, there is a conspiracy to commit reunion down here during the first week of August in 2009. We hope all of you come down and spend a week in the sun down at the lake. The humidity here is great for the skin. We feel younger than ever after living here for a few years (as you can tell by this old photo that I am trying to pass off as a recent picture). Much love to all. Peace. Billy

WWC Theatre Reunion

Hey Everybody!
As some of you are already aware, Natalie Burgess and I are organizing a WWC Theatre Reunion. This is scheduled for the first week of August 2009 in Cisco Texas. The point of planning it that far in the future is so that there will be NO EXCUSES for not being able to get there. So everybody clear your schedules for that week and please keep them clear. We would love to see you all there. I have visited with Billy about this and he is looking forward to it. For those of you interested (hopefully all of you) please send either myself or Natalie Burgess your e-mail and regular mailing address, as well as a phone number where you can be reached. Over the next year we will be using these to send more information to you about the plans as they develop. I am excited for the chance to see you all again, and to meet those of you who were there before my time at WWC. Thanks.
Miles Mathews WWC Theatre 1998-2001.
