Saturday night
Aug. 3rd, 2008 08:36 amOne hour, forty minutes.
That's the drive time to the White Rock Municipal Complex, where the Mountain Mixers dance.
Found it with no problem. Much nicer dance space than the one in Los Alamos where they used to dance: new wood floors, good air conditioning, comfortable space for no more than three squares. Very friendly little group; with me dancing one tip, they had two squares, normal for them. Big push for them to start a new class in September, drawing from the "Los Alamos/White Rock/Espanola metro area."
Shared the dance program with Bob Nolan, a very good round dance cuer. I really should learn to cue some rounds; it's a good tool to have for this type of dance.
They've asked me to check my calendar for next year, since they've booked all their callers for the rest of the year. Once or twice a year there is just fine! The drive is easy, too, but LONG!
[Edit: Bob Nolen just emailed me; I accidentally took his laptop battery charger. We're 90 miles from each other. Eek!]
[Later Edit: Good news! Bob had a spare he's using. He'll pick up his on the way to the ABQ airport on Thursday!]
