Hello tangueros around the world: As the cycle of the year 2000 draws to an end. We in the North West part of the Americas and enter the new Melinnium. We will begin by giving thanks to whatever entity we chose and reflect back on the year with friends and relatives. One of the things I will give thanks for is all that Tango has brought me in the way of great relationships, healthy addiction, and a lot of time laughing and dancing this challenging form of music and movement. Connection is the one word that brings to mind.
