Just Another Day in Paradise!

Bicycles, Bicycles!

Saturday Morning Market then Guinness Again
Started off the day in a wonderful way - Motza Pies at Saturday morning market. Ended the day with a gathering of friends from All Children's to indulge in the offerings of Courigan's Irish Pub and to listen to the Irish music of Jim & Laura as the duo Guinness.
Guinness
A wonderful evening after a long week at work. Good food, libations of Guinness beers and the wonderful music and laughter of Guinness, the duo.

Autographed Shoes!
It was a wonderful weekend with Frankie. We asked him to autograph our dance shoes. What an honor to have taken dance lessons from the great granddaddy of Lindy Hop and to have a reminder every time we don our dance shoes!
Beginning Lindy
Frankie Manning and his son Chaz Young taught various dance lessons today at the Pinellas Park Auditorium. Frankie started out with the very basics of Lindy Hop. Today's lesson may very well be the most valuable of all the Lindy lessons that we have taken over the...
Winging it Home
Early in the morning we awakened at the Holiday Inn Express in Albuquerque and took the shuttle to the airport. We navigated security and flew home Delta by way of Atlanta with no problems. It's good to be home.
Evening in Albuquerque
