Almost, Maine in Madison






























So after a very successful winter run, my show remounted in Madison for three weeks the end of April/beginning of May. The show went very well and everyone who saw it, loved it. Unfortunately, it wasn't marketed at all and we were competing with The Lion King in the main theater so not a lot of people saw the show. Oh well, the work was nice and the hotel was dog friendly so Pete was able to come up on the weekends and the whole last week. We even had a little time here and there for fun - several of us from the cast, crew and Pete went mini golfing between shows one day. It was a blast.

Slacker

Yeah, I've been a slacker, or maybe there just hasn't been much going on - well at least nothing that we can officially report yet. Give us a couple of days.

In the mean time - here's what we've been up to in the past couple of months...


Pete and Jay decided that they would like to take up Curling. They went to an informal informational open house and were hooked. They will join the team in the fall - I'm sure that the fact that beer is included in their dues didn't hurt the sale!!








We spent Palm Sunday at Anita and Jeff's house celebrating Easter and got a chance to play with our not-so-little godson!
















Then - our first baseball season of the year. We went to another Brewers pre-season game vs. the Tigers. It was a nice day for baseball and we had great seats.

















Even though baseball season has started, we were able to sneak in a hockey game. I tagged along on Jay and Pete's annual blues game - it was a fun win!




Then we got in a couple of Cardinals games - Saturday - a good win with a bunch of friends after a great tailgate. It was a beautiful day for baseball!

Sunday Pete and I went to a Cardinals Brewers game, just the two of us. We weren't winning through most of the game and then Albert and Holliday hit back to back home runs to tie the game at 7-7 in the top of the 9th. Too bad the Brewers hit a walk-off homer in the bottom. It was a good time and I love the mini-sausage relay race on Sundays.





























Finally, we had a Milwaukee Rep Brewers outing since our friends from the Cast of Route 66 were singing the national anthem and our new artistic director threw out the first pitch. It was a great game, especially if you're a Brewers fan - The Brewers won 17-2 and batted around in two different innings.
