Dancing - A lost art

So...every Thursday evening, I go dancing with a good friend of mine.  We go to a grange near by.  It's cool living in a bit of a rural area, there's cool things like a "town grange"...anyhow...

The reason I always miss clan night is to go dancing.  Maybe I should sacrifice a little bit, but I sure enjoy it.  Now granted it's country dancing, but the teacher that does dance instruction before the real dancing starts teaches all sorts of stuff.  This past month we've been doing the Cha-Cha...Last month we did the Waltz...and we do 2-step of course, and swing...which is my personal fav!

I feel more connected to the music, and to a time gone by.  Now, maybe I'm a bit sentimental...but, My mom's parents have both passed away, but they were amazing dancers.  A little bit of a brag here, but people would clear the dance floor when the danced!  Everytime I go dancing I can feel how pleased they are that I'm learning how to dance better.  In this world of Hip-Hop and whatever else they call it...I'm glad that someone is still teaching these kinds of dances.  There is nothing so sexy as a man who knows how to dance, and can show you how he feels about you while dancing with you.  *Get your mind out of the gutter, you know what I mean!*

SO...if you're ever in the Puget Sound on a thursday night, you can come dancin' with me!

Thanks, I think my town is fun and delightful too... :)A grange is a building usually in the center of things, where town meetings were held, and town activities...weddings, celebrations...etc... :)

I had a girlfriend once that said that the way you dance is similar to the way you make love. Taking that to heart, I threw myself on the ground and starting crying. -Lil joke there....maybe...

A town grange. I have no idea what that is, but it sounds delightful. Your town sounds fun.
