[Callers] I ♥ Dances - was: Contras which feature a "Dublin Bay" figure

[Don Veino via Callers]

In response to Ron's challenge, here's my take on a non-glossary way out of
the Dublin Bay figure - via a unique(?) twist on a Mad Robin. Good response
when called at the Concord, MA Scout House Thursday dance this week
(2/2/17).

Included below is a follow-up spin with a more traditional Down the Hall to
simplify further. Names were contributed by our 5 year old daughter, which
then inspired the choreography.

Happy Dancing!
Don
