Merry Christmas, Tracy.

....:::: Peace ::::....


Tracy Hirschman Hutson, then and now... No, no, no... forget "then and now" How about a show of Munchkins - so much more fun! Here are ours: Ireland, Taelisen and Nicolas




Rik and Cori Fields with their munchkins Cooper, Peyton and "Little Boo."

This is so-o-o cool! Thank you, Lindy ('88) - for those of you just coming on board, my sister created this tblog and gave it to me for Christmas. So I plan to use it as our Photo Album extension from our class website. I have no idea what I'm doing so hang in there with me until it starts to flow! And... be sure to send in those photos!

Additional thoughts: Right now I'm just going to load photos up as they come in, maybe later we can group them by date (past/present) or arrange them by families and/or clicks. For those tbloggers among us - I'll open the comments section in a bit. Right now lets leave it closed until Lindy's tblog friends realize she's not here. Will keep you posted.



So here's the Motley Crew. Let's see if I can name everyone in this shot. Rik, you may have to help me here... Front Row: Rik Fields and Craig Albertson. Second Row: Lee Wright, Pete Kermer, Ray Stuhn and Joe Moore. Back Row: Scott Bicknell, David Cowley, Jim Wagner, Danny (?) and Ande Weathers.

Paige Handley Wildman and her daughter Shannon (not so Munchkin-like these days!)



And Paige at her sister's wedding back in May 2005.

Rik sent in this group of photos. Apparently the Brew Crew gets together for mini-reunions. This one was in Tahoe back in 2002. Hey Rik, who is everybody here anyway? If you guys got a story that goes with these pics email it to me and it will get pasted in as a caption... but do we really want to know?!

And a couple pics from the good old days...

L-R Top: (?), Robert Gotzman and Ray Stuhn
L-R Bottom: David Cowley, Rik Fields and Joe Moore
And two side-kicks: Ande Weathers and Lee Wright

Where is this, Pub London?
Pete Kermer, Rik Fields, Ray Stuhn and Steve Harmon

Melissa Price Kumnick sent in this next batch of pics taken at the 80's Era Reunion back in 1993 in Dallas. She really doesn't look like she's having a very good time... does she? Most of these folks were from '82 and '83, a few from '84. And only her from our class. Here's who she said she remembers with a disclaimer that she's now old with bad eyes - (Left to Right)
5th Row: _____, Greg Baxley, Chris Durham,______, ______, Richard Pickering, Eric Lundgren, Robert Cresanti, Archie Cosey, Steve ?
4th Row: 6 men we don't know
3rd Row: - hard to identify because they sort of have two rows, but most of the gals are from 83 here I think Everett Rochon (85) is next to Trish Blackstead. He came the last day. (Trish Blackstead, Donya Jackson, Patti Weathers
2nd Row: ______, Julie Thompson, Kim (Sessler) Ryan, _______, _______, Julie (Nosel), Stephanie (Rochon), Me, Michele (Price)
1st Row: Two guy sitting on floor: Ivan Cushberry, Billy Yamaguchi

We've got to have a much better '85 showing next time!!








Y'all remember Jack - he just found our site! If you recall he was the poet among us... and still is. Here's some of his work.

This next batch came in from Jacky Herrera-Caban (and GOODNIGHT!!!) it's two decades later and those Herrera girls are still drop-dead georgous!




This next beautiful photo is of Jacky and Bradley with their two sons James and Andrew.

Daniel Shepherd sent in this recent one of himself with Uli Jon Roth (formerly of the Scorpions)

And another munchkin photo of Shawn Davis with his daughter Ashley

Here's the homepage article Peter Weathers (a.k.a Ande) sent in. I just don't know how to make this legible. So if you'd like a copy of it just fire me an email letting me know and I'll forward the original scan to you. Honorable mentions include: Rik Fields, Scott Bicknell, Boris Fraley, Robert Lipsey, Ivan Cushberry, Vince Bohner, Norman Nelson, David Cowley, Karl Williams, Terry Norman and Ande Weathers.

Isn't it reassuring to know that there are some things in this world that never change? Thanks guys! We'll make sure we catch up you next time!!!

(7/13/05) I'm thinking that Lindy's tblogging friends have figured out that she's no longer here and we are, so let's open up the comments section and see who we hear from. In fact I recently heard from Mrs. Judy Flacke no less!!! (Yep, once again I feel it coming on... a smooze for pictures)



Okay, now that we're all starting to recover from the reunion here are some photos I've been collecting on my desktop the last few weeks...


This was recently up on our homepage... Yow-zah John Hassel and his Hog!

3rd Row (L-R): David Cowley, Barbara Knowles, Terri Pettie, Michelle Kwon, Karen Rawls, Andrea Lemburg, Brenna Sloan, Patrisha Platz, Leah Curry, Heidi Bartel, Selina Borchert, Debbie Cwetna and Ann Denny.

Pete Kermer sent in a handful of pictures of his family and with the promise of more from the Oktober Fest...

This one was taken in Arles, France (2005) where Peter and Shari recently renewed their wedding vows

Now for the moment of truth... The October 2005 San Antonio 80's-Era Reunion pictures! They're going to be a while coming in but here's what I've currently got - clearly so many of them speak for themselves.

The '85 Class
(L-R) Robert Hicks, Tracy Hirschman, David Cowley, Brenna Sloan Lee, Barbara Eves and Rik Fields.

Dave and Rik (the reunion's cutest couple)


The '86, '87, '88 and '89 Classes... the two on the left, Marta ('86) and Brian ('87) earned their honorary '85 class membership while playing "I Never" - they both were a blast!

And of course everybody.... so far this is the only pic we've got of Micky Harris Dixon ('84). She's the one who pulled this event together - big THANK YOUs goes to her! (1st Row, 2nd from the left next to Rik)

Rik, Dave and Brenna's Friday and Saturday evenings out on the town clearly setting a good example for our under-classmen.

The 80's Band Basses reunited again... at about 2am in the morning... really, way past my bedtime! (Brian Pick of '87 on Bass Sax and me, who always had the best solos on Bassoon)!!



However Brenna and Rik can party until the sun comes up... and sets... again...




Our littlest munchkin, Taelisen (aka T'bug) came to the SA reunion, too. The highlight of her weekend was the discovery of the Children's Museum just around the corner of our hotel - imagine that, 4 whole hours of a one-baby-party! Woo-hoo! (And apparently she has no appreciation for Rik's photoshopped thong, ... "ewh, yucky!" where her exact words.)

And while we were out and about we kept running into these two tourists... it turns out that Barbara and Marta ('86) just realized they live about two mile from each other!

Oh, can't forget this... we got to see the Hot Car Parade in Boerne on Sunday. 450+ entrants, and this wasn't the only car I was drooling over. Very cool indeed!

Stay tuned... more to come. (Barbara, have you got that new scanner set up yet?)
