Tuesday & Wednesday On the Road Again

Square dancing

We had two outstanding days of plus/dbd dancing with Randy Dougherty in Tool, Texas. 

We have danced to Randy Dougherty many times in the Rio Grande Valley. We really like him, not only is he one of the most challenging callers he is also fun to dance to. The Log Cabin Square & Round Dance Club invited him to call a special two day event in Tool at Promenade Hall. 

We have been to Tool many times to dance and since you can camp right at the hall we have always taken the Minnie but this time we decided to stay at The Ranch, it is a small motel across the street from the hall. The rooms are small and very nice. You have to be careful because there is a step to go to the bathroom. The owners take great care of the place and are very friendly. 

Our room at The Ranch

The schedule for each day of dancing was two, two hours sessions with a two hour break in between. We had three squares of dancers. After each dance Randy called an Advanced tip where we had a square. Randy put us in positions that were challenging. No matter how many times we dance to him we are still amazed at how talented he is. A lot of the dancers had never danced to Randy before and said they had a great time. We had a super time dancing with friends and Randy. I enjoyed paying attention to his dog Abby.
