~ dance tonight

JANE AUSTIN CELEBRATION
Me and Heidi Gailey playing "The Jane Game"
Heidi and I went to the Jane Austin Celebration at the Marmalade 
Library in SLC and enjoyed a blast from the past!  Heidi is an avid 
Jane Austin fan and knew all the answers to the game and helped 
the rest of us 'amateurs' have a good time and learn a few things!
This was such a fun night - the 7 guest dancers were dressed in 'period' costumes and taught us how to dance some of the dances from Jane Austin's lifetime.
~ The English Country Dance, Boulanger, The Cotillion, The Minuet ~ 
These are some of the dances that Jane would have enjoyed; I am 
not sure (at all) what we learned tonight - all I know is that it was 
quite entertaining and such a wonderful evening!
