what do you do for fun on a saturday night?

go square dancing! i was invited to attend an old fashion square dance last night. the caller was a seasoned pro.... gently building our square dancing skills throughout the evening. He started us with the basics, men on the left, ladies on the right. head couple, corners,  do-si-do, promenade and soon we were swinging around.

in between each set, he led us through line dances...... old time favorites < chicken dance, hokey pokey> and then the electric slide.

the kids were a hoot, keeping up with the old timers and really trying to get the steps. i did it all, loved every minute. the best? virginia reel!
