Hubby and I square danced in a club for about 10 years....many years ago.
Those were some of the best years of our marriage (for me). We met new people, traveled and it wasn't too expensive.
When we were in Fla. this winter we went to a sq. dance..and watched. We talked about taking some refresher classes when we got home. Since the dances are held at night, maybe they wouldn't interfere with golf. Maybe I'll bring up the topic tonight when we're out to dinner...hmmmmmmm Since his golf games are'nt that good lately, maybe he'll be receptive to the question.
It's all about timing!!!

Chives,
Where do you go when you go to Florida. I ask because WB and I go to Kissimmee every year. We RV it and stay at Tropical Palms across from Old Town, rent a car, and zoom around the Orlando, Kissimmee area for two weeks. WB does not golf, however; nor do I. But that is something I'd love to take up one of these days.

I haven't been on for a while, was just browsing through and saw the Gay Gordon mentioned. I love dancing, too and at a relative's party in Edinburgh a few years ago, was given the chance to dance the Gay Gordon. It was very fast indeed, but I loved every minute of it. My partner was my husband's cousin and he had quite a hard grasp. Needless to say, I went home with a few bruises on my arm, but it was well worth it. I loved it and have danced it again at another party just a few months ago. Good exercise, too!

Hope you are all well.

Expat.
would you believe on an exchange visit to US a teacher friend was teaching Gay Gordons to a class and was asked to rename it
Happy Gordon
did you dance other dances ? Maybe "Dashing White Sargent"?

Thanks MA!
