Swing Dancing

If you read my blog, then you know that I've been taking swing dance lessons.  Cheri, Lori, Bill, and a few others, here's a few pics and videos for your entertainment.

These are a few of the ladies I dance with regularly.  Occasionally, we'll go out after class for ice cream, or after a dance for other refreshment.  The women are, from left to right, Laura, Lauren, Valerie, and Danelle.  The lovely redhead in the center, right, is our dance instructor. She owns and operates Get Hep Swing


Just to prove that I didn't steal these pics off some website...here's me in the picture. :-)


Last night, we went to Quaker Steak and Lube for wings and just to talk, because we don't usually have time to chat at the dances.  Karen came with us last night, she's the one in back, on the right with the Mona Lisa smile.  Makes you wonder just what she's thinking....  I found out that Karen and I share the same dream job, that of being a fighter pilot.  Lauren would love to find a cure for cancer, and save all the children (she's studying to be a nurse).  Shoot!  I forgot what Laura and Danelle's dream jobs are.





Here, Lauren and I are dancing. My niece took the video, and turned the camera sideways halfway through. It seemed like a good idea at the time, to match the framing, but I haven't found a way to rotate the video back to normal yet.... We're going out dancing again tonight, so we can record a new video.



Danelle's friends from Missouri came out for the week.  Friday night they stopped by my house for cards.  Their daughter wanted me to teach her to dance, so here we are:



So, what I'm trying to say is that I'm having fun swing dancing.

I just reread this post. I'm rather disappointed in my writing. It's bland. Dead. Uninspiring. It doesn't convey in the least, the amount of fun I have dancing with these lovely ladies at each dance and every class.
