A First

Ann and I attended the first annual Wilmore Christmas Ball last evening (dressy attire, please). We had a great time. I expected the place to be filled with geezers. Instead, the majority were young couples and students all dressed up and enjoying themselves immensely. Swing dance lessons were offered before hand. Ann and I participated but I’m afraid I may be dyslexic dancer. Music was provided by the Metronomes, a 17 piece big band. They were good but a lot off the music was swing and Latin. Fortunately they played quite a few slow dances so we were able to show our dance skills off. I wanted to dip but Ann would not cooperate. Oh well, my back would have probably gone out and we have ended up in a pile on the dance floor. We were out well past our bedtime but I slept in this morning. I’m a little sore and stiff but it was worth it.
