Re: [Callers] Were These Dances Written Before?

Does anybody recognize these two choreographical sequences as dances that have already been written by someone else? I came up with them yesterday, but they look basic enough to be already-composed, so I want to give credit where it is due if I'm not the first to land on these sequences. "Hanging Out in Portland" by Dugan Murphy (improper, double progression) A1 Neighbor right shoulder spiral/gypsy and swing (16) A2 Gents Left Hand Allemand 1.5 (8) / Partner Pass Right to Start Half Hey Across (8) B1 Partner right shoulder spiral/gypsy and swing (16) B2 Circle Left Three Places (7) - Partner Weave Left Past This Couple (3) - Weave Right Past Second Couple (3) - Weave Left to Face 3rd Neighbor on the Side (3) "Get the Baby" by Dugan Murphy (improper, single progression) A1 Neighbor Balance and swing (16) A2 Gents Left Hand Allemand 1.5 (8) / Partner Pass Right to Start Half Hey Across (8) B1 Partner Balance and swing (16) B2 Ladies Chain Across to Neighbor (8) / Left Hand Star Once (8) "Hanging Out in Portland" came about while looking at "Valerie's Trip to Portland" by Erik Weberg and "Leave Them Hanging" by Luke Donforth at the same time. "Get the Baby" is like a lot of basic star-progression dances, but I guess I had "Get Me Going" by Lisa Greenleaf and "The Baby Rose" by David Kaynor on my mind at the time when I was looking for a different progression sequence to accompany the swing-allemand-hey-swing sequence.
