Hi, Ron,

Here are some favorites of mine. I hope a few might be the type of square you would like. Have fun!

Hi all,

I'm looking to expand the number of contra-friendly Squares in my box.

1. Keepers preferred unless it's a really good mixer.
2. Not too gimmicky.
3. Not really interested currently in Southern style visiting couple squares (heads and sides fine, but not one couple at a time).

(Got Kimmswick Express, First Night Quadrille, a couple others)

Thanks,
Ron
