July 4th Pool Party 2002
This years pool party was nearly the party that never was.
The events of 911 affected all of us to some degree and some of us in many ways, it affected our pool party as well to the extent we considered cancelling it. Our dear friend Mary Strat lost someone she knew on that day, Mary was due to return for the pool party in 2002 but will not fly since the 911 incident.
Other incidents also dampened the planning as Cecelia moved out of Trestian Manor not long after last years pool party. A number of personal issues arose with Pauline Nash and she would not be able to attend. We had tried to get Barb back to the estate for a pool reunion but she too would not travel after the events of 911. As the new year progressed and some time had passed we realized that despite all that had happened it was perhaps more important than ever to get together for another holiday event. I think that over the past 5 years we've forged a strong knit group with both the theater and the Wellington company itself and as a result we're more committed than ever to keep this group together to any extent we can.
I think 911 perhaps has taught us more about valuing those close in your life and cherishing those special relationships.
With these things in mind, we bring you the Independence Day party 2002

Here's our lovely Miss Judy starting off the festivities again this year sporting a white bikini..

And here's Judy setting the stage for my favorite look, that being no bikini.....

Finally we have Judy with no bikini in water.. courtesy of Jon Cass and his dependable (not) polaroid instamatic.....

Emma was leary of traveling and stayed at Trestian Manor with us all year in 2002, as a result, Emma took to the water fast in 2002...

I continue to be amazed by how much Jenna VanAusdale has sort of 'come out of her shell'

Similar to last years party... Jenna showed up with an agenda full of sexy fun and we all took great notice

Here's Jenna completing one of the hottest pool party pictorials ever and ready to get wet.. or wetter....

Lori Loom joins us again in 2002 and takes to the water early, I dont think Lori even brought a suit......

Here we get a sexy look at Lisa Herold and Rachel Henney following Jenna's poolside example......

Past Pool Party Member
Monica Fahey

Monica Fahey returned for her second pool party in 2002 and as so often happens at our pool parties... once someone sets the tone, like Jenna's bikini removal show... everyone starts following the trend as you see Monica doing here...

Monica loves the water, if you havent already noticed....

We love the fact that Monica loves the water.... pool party is in full gear now....

Rebecca Barrett was back at the pool party in 2002 and took to the water early and often...

Rebecca wanted to get in on one of our classic underwater pool photos, I think she did a marvelous job with this one.....

Here's some fun in the pool for Zeke Range as he's surrounded by lovely women Karen Shay and Linda Jacobs. This was Zeke's frist pool party of the new era, and a memorable one for him as well.

I made sure we got something better than the instamatic for Karen Shays underwater pose....

Linda Jacobs is a favorite amongst us and is quickly gaining notoriety for steamy pool party pics, here's linda frontside...

Linda, being thorough as she is,, provides a backside floaty view as well......

As if things werent steamy enough, perhaps the most intense views of the pool party were still to come....
