Getting Out: Unexpected adventure awaits at Emigrant Wilderness

Expecting a window of good fall weather, in mid-October I headed to Emigrant Wilderness – a place I had never visited.

Wrestling with the good, the bad and the silly street tree ‘crisis’

Gladdens my heart to read Sports Editor Erin Redmond’s story about the new wrestling room under construction at Gilroy High. The storied Mustang program is steeped in life lessons.

“Anything Goes” is an original musical comedy that opened on Broadway in 1934 and starred Ethel Merman, then Patty LePone and then Joel Gray. It went on to three revivals winning awards through the years of movies, television and stage. The plot is outrageous and silly, but it has Cole Porter’s music including “De-Lovely,” “I Get kick Out of You,” “You’re the Top,” “Easy To Love” and “Anything Goes”--and a super talented cast.
