Happy Hoppers Newsletter #13
12/05/2011
From Steve and Susan:
It was good to see everyone Monday night. We missed you, Steve. Jill heard from Wanda that she was not feeling well. We hope you are feeling better, Wanda. Kenita went home early because she didn’t feel well. We hope you are feeling better too.
In addition to the specific calls that are listed below, the other left-handed call we danced was Left Touch 1/4.
We also danced calls that we have danced for weeks and already know but with same sex partners, like Wheel and Deal or Ferris Wheel or Square Thru. We will be dancing this way more in the coming weeks. The definition of the call does not change. It just may feel different because you are in the left hand dancer position instead of the right hand dancer position. If you need to go back and review some of these definitions, you can find all the past newsletters on my web site (http://callersusan.com).
I hope that your holiday shopping and preparations are going well. Don’t forget to dance! Hope to see you Friday night!
Happy dancing,
Susan and Steve
