OUR LAST NIGHT OF DANCING IN TEXAS

Last night a group of couples from Paradise Park, went over to Winter Ranch in Alamo for a dance.  It was our last chance to go Dancing before we leave Texas for this year. 
When we were young we used to go dancing all the time.  I had forgotten how much I love it, until we started going to dances down here.



Dan & I had a wonderful time we are definitely going to do more of this next year. 
People here search out their favorite band and follow them from venue to venue.  If your really into dancing you could go dancing every other night here.  It's BYOB, and they provide buckets of ice and popcorn, all for $4.00 a head.  You can't beat that for cheap entertainment.  There is a lot of country music down here, which isn't exactly up my alley, but as long as it's up beat and danceable, it is tolerable.  So next year we are going to be searching out bands that I like and I will be following them from venue to venue and we will dance our little hoofies off.   It's good exercise too. 
So this morning we started to pack up thinking it was going to be such a big chore and that we wouldn't get it finished until Sunday night and we would leave Monday morning.  Well, It's just after 12 noon and I have done all the laundry and packed up all my patio.  (Low and behold it all fit in the shed with plenty of room to spare. )  We are certainly more than half finished, so we are thinking maybe we will finish up tonight and start for home tomorrow.  It will be nice to get a start north on a Sunday with less traffic, especially through Dallas.  I will be blogging daily as we travel homeward and I think I will keep my Blog going during the summer to keep in touch with some of our new Winter Texas friends.
