The upcoming play is "The Mystery of Pirate's Cove" written by Connie Breding. It is the Spring Children's Play and a large number of school children will be bused to the theater to enjoy the play.

As you can see by the captions, we each wear several hats in making the Theatre on the Hill successful. It is such a fun group of people and we are always looking for new people to enlarge our experiences in the theater.

Special thanks to Douglas Kerr, Photographer/Electrical Engineer/Actor for taking the photos in this article.

After our regular monthly meeting, Doug and I decided to drive to Tularosa, New Mexico, 13 miles from Alamogordo to dine at Casa de Suenos and since he was still in a photography mood, he shot a few pictures.

This shot of Doug and me was made by our sweet waitress Lindsay

Can you tell I just might be his favorite subject??

Doug ordered what he calls "the stop light," on the menu as Tostado Combination

This was the perfect end to a successful Guild Meeting and a delicious meal.

This is all I have to say for now.
