More Dancing, This TIme At A Formal Dance Studio!

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes

We are up and moving early this fine morning, for we have work to do!  We did our chores, worked in the office for several hours, and finished off a series titled “11.26.63, which was about the Kennedy assassination and time travel.  I remember that day in 1963 as if it were yesterday!

11.22.63 is a Stephen King miniseries about English teacher Jake Epping (James Franco), who uses a time portal in a diner to travel back to 1960 with a mission from his friend Al: prevent the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.  Jake lives in the past, forming relationships and investigating Lee Harvey Oswald, but discovers history fiercely resists change, forcing him to confront dangers while falling in love with the era and a woman named Sadie, all while trying to alter a pivotal moment in history

We then got ready for a new dancing adventure.  We departed the house around 12:45 pm and arrived at “K Dance Studio” in Buena Park at 1:15 pm.  It was an interesting experience.  Vicky & Jim, Ed & Betty, and others joined us.

It was supposed to be a lesson and brunch, but after seeing the offerings, I went next door to Subway and got Mary a Turkey sub, and I opted for the Italian sub.  We had a delicious meal while others nibbled around the offerings.

We danced several times before heading home at 4:00 pm.

When we got home, the sun was still up, and we decided we needed to soak in hot water, so we went to the swim spa.  I brought out two glasses of our favorite wine, and we sat and talked for about 45 minutes before going inside.

Look hard, we are barely visible.

Inside, we decided we didn’t need dinner, so we escaped to the TV Room and watched a really dumb movie called “Ski Party”.

Ski Party (1965) included James Brown ripping his pants during his famous split, Aron Kincaid pretending to ski, Frankie Avalon & Dwayne Hickman breaking the fourth wall, plus cameos from Annette Funicello, Lesley Gore, and June Foray.

Ski Party was an extension of the popular beach party film genre, moving the action from the beach to Sun Valley, Idaho.

It was nine o’clock, and we turned off the lights and headed to bed!  I remember Mary’s last words, although I do not know who she was talking to.
