Re: [Callers] dances with down-the-halls

Hi Bob and All, The up then down will require the contra lines to stay away from the band :-) Why not go down the hall and stay there the first time, and up the hall and stay there the second? Combining Turning in Turn and the use of a swing to start back as in Two Way Street and Walking Down the Street gives a dance with a N Sw. The reminder feature for the 1s and 2s is even more pronounced, and it doesn't require a gap at the head of the lines. 1A1 (#1 between #2) Down the hall; Nbr Swing Face Across 1A2 Circle Left 1; 2s figure 8 below 1B1 2s turn contra conrners 1B2 2s balance and swing - face up 2A1 (#2 between #1) Up the hall; Nbr Swing Face Across 2A2 Circle Left 1; 1s figure 8 above 2B1 1s turn contra conrners 2B2 1s balance and swing - face down Cheers, Bill
