Thursday 12-29 Square Dancing to Joe and Bronc

Bronc Wise

Thursday December 29, 2016

Wow, what a marvelous day. Did you notice that Marty and Laurie from here at the J5 RV park made a comment on my blog? I have no idea how they found the blog but is was so nice of them to comment and offer such wonderful information. The park has lots of activities going on, way too many to remember but fortunately they have a monthly calendar listing many of them, they also gave us a list of things that the park has to offer and if you go to the Wednesday/Saturday coffee and donuts you are sure to find out about special events. There is a New Years party and on New Years day there is a hamburger lunch that we have signed up for. Shirley would fit right in, they play bingo every Tuesday, have Red Hatters meetings, play dominos in the evenings and there is a crafts get together every week. All this and lots more without ever leaving the park.

Today started out humid and hot but by noon a cold front came in. There was a bit of drizzle, the temperature dropped and the wind blew. It's suppose to be cool for a day and then back to being warm. I think the humidity is getting to Flo, by the end of her walks she is panting heavy. 

We started the day by going about 10 miles to the Tropic Star RV Park in Pharr for an A level workshop with Joe Saltel at 10:00. He had exactly 12 couples so everyone had to dance the whole time. Joe uses cards to give everyone a chance to dance with everyone. It was suppose to be a doughnut dance but Joe forgot the doughnuts which was probably good, we didn't need a doughnut since we already had breakfast and I probably could not have resisted. Some of the dancers who were there we had danced with yesterday. The workshop was great,  Joe walked us through a few moves that people were having trouble with. We were grateful to him for taking the time. The more floor time we have the better. Last year when we were in the Valley we danced to Joe and always had a great time. .  

Having fun dancing to Bronc

Here we go!!!

In the afternoon we traveled a whole 3 miles to El Valle Del Sol RV Park in Mission to an A Dance called by Bronc Wise. The first time we danced to Bronc was a couple of months ago in Paris, TX. He has an outstanding voice and calls great. Bronc's wife Fia took the money at the door and put us in the computer. The dance was by computer instead of cards. The computer tells the dancers what square they are dancing in. There were five squares and a few extra people. We sat out one tip so I able to take a few pictures. We danced with some of the same dancers in morning so it was nice to see them again. We had a super time.

On the way home from the dance we stopped by Subway and had dinner, afterwards we stopped by Dollar Tree to look for a small basket that we can attach to the wall to hold small things like the cell phone, Kindle and chargers, at the moment we end up with them laying on the table, we didn't find what we are looking so we will look at Target. When we got home Flo was happy to see us. After saying hi I fed her dinner and then took her for a walk. After the second dance we were exhausted so we stayed home in the evening. We had a great day.
