9-6 Staying Longer

Making Friends

I think I forgot to mention that we have decided to stay at Fun Valley for another week. We had so much fun and met so many folks that we really enjoyed being with that we just could not leave. Our last day here was suppose to be Saturday but here it is Sunday and we will now be here until next Saturday. A lot of our new friends left but a few have stayed and I am sure we will make many more new friends this week. Of course there are also people here that we dance with from Georgetown and Sun City and we have gotten to know all of them much better. When you dance with these folks at club dances you get a few minutes between tips to socialize but being here we have had time over breakfast, lunch and dinner to get to know them much better and participating with some of them in the other activities has also expanded our relationships.

Having Fun

Today we hung out at the Minnie and relaxed until 5:30, which was opening dinner for the week. This week the the cuers for rounds are Jerry and Lucy Pate from Round Rock Texas. The callers are Brad Caldwell From Georgetown and Wade Driver from Spring Texas. While relaxing Larry read, I worked out and did some Sudoku and Flo slept and kept me company outside when I did my workout. This weekend was Labor Day weekend so Fun Valley was busy with families. The families were playing Frisbee, fishing, riding bicycles, paddle boating, walking around and doing other activities. So after I finished my workout Flo stayed outside in watched people while she sunned.

Tony and Martha Burghart Round Dancing

Brad Caldwell and Jerry Pate doing an after party skit

In the evening we attended the opening dance, there were seven squares and a lot of round dancers. Everyone had a great time dancing. The after party was very entertaining. The staff did a couple of skits. The first skit was with Brad Caldwell and Wade Driver playing a foreign visitor ordering room service. The second skit was with Brad and Jerry Pate playing a dentist patient at a discount dentist office. This skit was hilarious. The snacks we had were sandwiches, chips, water and soda prepared by the hosts Gene and Cindi Young. We had a super time.
