Hi All, I posted a request for suggestions on preparing for an upcoming dance a couple of weeks ago. I had not called a dance in 18 months, and had expected to stay on “emeritus” status. Thank you for your suggestions! You helped buck me up and get my head back in the game. The dance was an annual one for our "living local” foodie folks. They were sure ready to dance after diner was finished! It was not hard at all to get folks up and moving. The Flying Elbows String Band is always a treat to call to. We all had big fun! The band and I might end up with an additional gig or two from this. One of the band members posted a video of dance from the 2015 dance for this same group. I was even wearing the same shirt. I recognized the dance that I used to use at almost all ONS dances. Dang! I had forgotten all about it! The band and I did another dance gig this weekend. We again had big fun. We managed to do our dances while several small children danced in and out of the sets. One result of these two dances is that some locals may finally get together to have a regular dance series again. The band and I have a wedding gig coming up this next weekend. I have shaken off my mental cobwebs and am back in the groove.
Thank you all for your encouragement! John B. Freeman _______________________________________________ List Name: Callers mailing list List Address: Callers@lists.sharedweight.net Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/callers@lists.sharedweight.net/
