OK, so not quite over!

So just because we're both working doesn't mean we have to keep having fun! The day before we went into rehearsal the Milwaukee Rep had a Brewers outing - it was a blast - there were almost 60 people that came to the game and most of them joined us at a pre-game tail gate. It was quite an event!

At the end o fmy first week of rehearsal, The Rep had their company picnic. The picnic always consists of the annual kick-ball game, Interns vs. Staff. This year Pete convinced them to mix it up a little and they chose teams by counting off. Pete was on the winning team (the twos!) and even got a war wound from a particularly dramatic slide into second base!


As our last trip of the summer we had a mini-vacation to the Quad Cities to see a River Bandit's game. Prior to this summer they were known as the Swing of the Quad Cities but changed their name. It was their last game of the season and we had great seats - front row behind home plate. One of the fun things about the River Bandit's park is that they take the whole Field of Dreams thing seriously (Is this heaven? No it's Iowa) to the extent that they have a corn field at the left field foul pole and the players enter the field out of the corn. It was fun! Unfortuantly the River Bandits lost to the T-Rats, but we got to see the T-Rats pitcher throw an almost perfect game. He was one little in-field bloop from a no-hitter and besides that bloop, he threw a perfect game. We had a great day and it was a lovely little get-away trip before I went into tech.
