My Life On the Clearwater Mountains

As I sit here wandering thru the years of past, love all the awe's that I have experienced. Being raised in the beautiful Clearwater Mountains helped to frame the me that I am today. My heart forever lay in those mountains. Growing up knowing that life was the most amazing thing I have learned on this mountain. I love rainbows and the feeling of the rain as it lays on my palm of my hand as I lay upon the grass, watchng the lightning strike across the darking of the sky. Love seeing all that Mother Nature has to offer. I will return to the beautiful Clearwater River to swim in that ice cold Spring run off as I use to do often. I want to sit quietly on an old tree that has lost it's way to the ground no longer strong enough to reach for the sun. As I sit there seeing wild life coming to the river to drink being so still so they won't notice me. Enjoy what I see as long as I can. I want to just watch the flying squirrels go from tree to tree. I would love to fly as they do hummmm the free wind underneath the leap knowing nothing about what is on the other side. To watch a fawn as she trys to get upon her new given legs to explore the wood lands that wrap around her. To watch the sunset as it hides itself behind the mountain. Just enough light to show the white beautiful rapids of the river. Wait can you hear that? Listen very carefully and I bet you can hear all the sounds that are here. I know I do even as I sit here writiing this all down. Come sit here with me and you too can see what I can see with this amazing heart that lives inside of me. I would love to share the wonder that I find in all the tiny simple things that most people miss because they are too busy, too angry and too sad to see what lays right in front of them. They call me Whipperwill and I Dance in the Flames of a Dream. Written September 27th, 2014

Then I See Myself.......

I walk upon the the beautiful pines, mmmm the unforgettable smell of all the assorted pine. I want to sit on a log near the river and with nothing on my mind but the peace and quite of it all. Shhhhh do you hear that? The water hits the rocks beneath my bare feet and splashes into the ripples that a fish just made as it jumped for what ever reason. I sit on the log and think of all the amazing things that I have done in my life. What an AWESOME life this lady has had. My most important years lay ahead of me or are they just dreams, hopes, wants and a desire that burns deep in this heart of mine. Life they say is what we make it...... there's something there, I can see it in the distance of the wind but so far out from my touch. Then I see myself where I dream to be, long to be.... it's there.... I see it..... hummmm is it just a dream? They call me Whipperwill and I Dance in the Flames of a Dream! <3

Timberline High Weippe, Idaho

There was a surge of interest in the Timberline Theatre Company in the academic year 1990-1991, the same year when then student Trevor Carlton was active. Carlton's depiction of then-popular rapper Vanilla Ice in a variety show in the school's theatre provoked interest in the program. In the spring of 1992, an unprecedented number of minority students auditioned for the year's spring musical, Rodgers and Hammerstein's South Pacific. A good number of those students were also members of the school's contemporary hip-hop dance crew known as the Highsteppers. In the fall season of 1992 under the direction of Sylvia Sparling, Timberline Theatre Company began auditions for The Outsiders, a book written by S.E. Hinton and a movie made popular in the early 1980s. The number of ethnic minority students in this production increased again with several of the minority students from South Pacific returning. To the surprise of many, most of the lead roles were played by these students who previously had limited-to-no theatrical experience. The Outsiders was a slight deviation from previous TTC productions. Instead of being in the fall, The Outsiders was in the winter (February 1993). It was also a modern-day adaptation rather than being set in the same time period as the actual story. This adaptation may have been reflective of the "gang-culture" that was existent at the school at the time. For the first time however, The Outsiders production involved a somewhat tightly-choreographed and planned fight scene using martial arts for the story's big "rumble" between the Socs and the Greasers.

The Heart Listens to Silent Sounds the Most

When you find that one person who puts the happy in your heart and sparkles in your eyes, never give up on the whole. With out the rain and the sun shining there would be no rainbows. The heart listens to silent sounds the most and actions shows the heart that there's so much to feel. The wind can blow the emotions right through your soul and grabs you by the hearts string and can play some amazing songs in your dreams. When you have that one always remember your music will live forever as long as you feed the flame of passion. They call me Whipperwill and my heart forever dances in the flames of a dream!
