Jean, nice dance. Let us know how it goes if you try it out. I would be surprised if
your dance has been written before. You list it as a double progression. Is that because
you swing the second neighbor?
You gave me an idea for a new dance. I’m not trying to out do any one here, just very
much enjoy writing dances.

Hello Callers! Around the breakfast table at Penelope Weinberger’s house this morning,
while on tour with Cloud Ten, I came up with this dance. Wrote it with the Sam Bartlett
tune Penelope’s Cruise (also written for Penelope Weinberger) in mind. Wondering if it
is already out there? Thanks for your input!
