A Weekend of Dancing

Saturday night there was Contra dancing in a nice size hall with live music and a guest caller. I did pretty well considering I have only danced once since the pandemic started in 2020. I had no problem keeping up but towards the end of the night my shoulder was aching a bit.

Then Sunday afternoon there was a caller's workshop in a small private hall. It was actually a pretty good workshop and I met some fun people. After the dance we went to Joanne's house for a poke bowl potluck dinner and some weird card games after. Joanne is an artist and had some interesting and fun decorations and paintings.

Today we went to Fern's house for an afternoon Irish Set Dancing session. And tea & snacks afterwards.

I really have enjoyed meeting people. Everyone has been so friendly and authentic. And several of them have recently relocated and have gone through the adjusting to new places; finding new friends etc challenges. So they were especially encouraging and supportive.

Also....this morning Jan, Doug and I went to look at a couple of houses. They are planning on buying a house together.Read more
