2-24 Buckles & Bows 13th Anniversary Dance

Tony Oxendine and me

What a pretty day, the clouds are gone and the sun is out but the wind made it feel quite cold. After breakfast we loaded Flo into the car and went to Walmart. The other day when we were smoking brisket Larry charged out the propane tank and discovered the new tank leaked, luckily we had another so he was able to keep the grill going, today when went to Walmart he exchanged the defective tank for another one. While there we did some of our weekly grocery shopping and filled the car with gas. The car had half a tank but we were going to Austin this evening and Larry didn't want to have to get it on the way home. 

We hung around the house all afternoon. I finished reading a book by William Kent Krueger called Boundary Waters, which is one of books in the Cork O'Connor series. I liked the book very well.

 In the evening went to Austin to dance with the Buckles & Bows Club. The dance started at 7:00 so we left the house at 5:00. Buckles & Bows is located in Cedar Park, tonight was their 13th Anniversary Dance and they invited Tony Oxendine to call, they needed a bigger hall so they had the dance at Hyde Park Christian Church in Austin. Tony Oxendine is an International Caller and we have heard a lot about him. We were going to dance to him a couple of times but something always came up. They had mainstream tips from 7:00 until 9:00, they had six squares and then they had plus tips from 9:00 to 9:30 which had four squares. In between the mainstream tips they had one line dance. Marie Gladson did the cuing. We sat out one tip so I could take some pictures. We had a super time dancing to Tony Oxendine.
