5-18 & 5-19 Two Fabulous Days of DBD

Jerry Story calling for the High Level DBD

May 18, 2016

Wow, we're tired. Today started two days of High Level DBD dancing with Jerry Story calling. It didn't start until 3:00 so we hung around the house until it was time to go. We did go to town to get two packages the UPS Store had for us. Flo went with us so she was happy she went for a ride. This square dancing event is taking place at Allemande Hall in Waco. It had two sessions each day. Todays sessions today were 3-5 and 7-9. We had seven squares and a few extra dancers. They used a computer program that told you which square you danced in. One good thing about using the computer is you get the opportunity to dance with different people. But a bad thing about using the computer is you may not rest. Jerry did a great job of keeping the dances going, we were lucky if we had more than three minutes between tips. The first session I didn't sit out at all because a gentleman needed a partner to dance with. Larry also ended up dancing the tip we were suppose to sit out, a friend of ours was having knee problems so Larry filled in for him. We danced and visited with people we don't get to see very often. For the two hours in between sessions we went with Dalbert and LuAnn to BJ's for dinner. There were about twenty of us there. We had a super time dancing with Jerry and our friends and we are looking forward to going back tomorrow. When we got home Flo was very excited to see us considering she was left at home for over eight hours.

This morning we woke up to rain. I got up the same time as Larry. While Larry was getting dressed I fed Flo and took her outside. The first session started at 9:00 so we had to leave the house 7:45, we don't like to be late. It rained on and off all day. The morning session had seven squares plus a few more people. We broke for lunch around 11:00. Once again we went with Dalbert and LuAnn to lunch. Today we went to a local sandwich shoppe called Schmaltz's Sandwich Shoppe. This was the first time we have eaten there. We shared a large The Schmaltz sandwich. It was good. In the afternoon we had six squares with three extra couples. We had another super day of dancing with Jerry Story and friends.

On the way home from dancing we stopped by the storage center to get the Minnie and the car dolly. In the evening we got the Minnie ready to go to Fredericksburg for another two days of dancing with Jerry Story. After getting the Minnie ready we relaxed all night. We watch the movie Blue State via Amazon, it was a Canadian/American romantic comedy starring Breckin Meyer and Anna Paquin. It was a cute movie.
