Havelock line dance list - 11/9

From Nan:

Here is the playlist for the Wednesday Nov 9 line dance in Havelock. I surely missed dancing this past Wed and look forward to seeing all this coming week. $3 each.

I know a few who already have let me know they will be unable to attend on the 16th. If you know you will not be able to attend, if you could let me know so we can decide if we have enough to get together for the 16th. Don't forget we will not be dancing on the 23rd, the night before Thanksgiving.

Also we need to decide which Wed in Dec we can meet prior to our 7 dance time to have Christmas dinner together . Let me know your preference--Dec 7, 14, or 21st.

Thanks. See you on Wed. Take care. Nan

New dance - Midnight Stroll

Peter and Allison's new dance Midnight Stroll is out. The dance looks like fun and the music is "Walking After Midnight" by Imelda May, one of my favorite musicians. She has such a fabulous voice!

Also thanks go out to to Juliet and her wonderful group of dancers that make all of these great Youtube videos for the line dancing community. I thank all of you for what you do.

Laughing baby video

I can't resist posting videos like this. They always bring a smile to your face a and a laugh to your lips, which is a great way to start the day!

The baby is in a bathtub, and a puppy comes to take a look. The baby starts laughing when the puppy tries to grab the baby's toy. From there on it's all smiles.
