Hugh's Story
Went to college, 4 years of SUNY - Plattsburgh
Met some great people, made some life-long friends. Learned TV/Radio production. Went to a bunch of Grateful Dead shows.
Moved to Colorado and skied for 5 years, but also got my 1st TV and Radio job. Saw a bunch of Grateful Dead shows at Red Rocks and Telluride. Loved the mountains and will probably move back sometime. Met a girl there who I thought I would marry someday.
Moved to Orlando, FL around 1989. Worked with Shamu, my favorite killer whale. Saw a bunch of Dead shows in Miami and Atlanta. Met a lot of crazy Florida people.
Asked the girl from Colorado to marry me and she said yes - moved back up to New York and took up residence in Newburgh, NY with her 4 year old daughter. Went to a bunch of Dead shows with my college friends. Made two wonderful baby girls. Continued my tv career working in cable news operations.

as that.
Family moved to Los Angeles in 2000 to advance careers. Worked a bunch of TV jobs for this or that. Wife and I split up (long, sad story) Saw a bunch of Dead leftovers shows. Currently staring at the mountains outside my apartment, they speak to me, and wondering what to do next.
Biggest accomplishment - quit smoking almost 3 years ago. Produced a CD with Chris Buessem that you can hear at bentrockmusic dot com or myspace/bentrock dot com
Proudest accomplishment - Helen is 15 and just starting to drive... doing well in school. Claire is 13 and likes to stir the pot... doing well in school.
Wish I could go back in time to - spend one more night at the ruins, drinking Spaten dark, and hanging with my friends. Or better yet, the night my parents were away and I hosted a party at my house... that was a very memorable night.
