Theme: Dancin' & Romancin' March 3, 2013 (Page One)
Gerry and Clancy Zerg - Dance Directors
We dance in a 102 year old Country Club....
Join us.....
Welcome one and all... This is my new favorite drink... An "Air Martini"
A single cherry
and air... It's a simple drink!
"Almost everyone is here... It's time to dance"
"Hi there... We are the inside-greeters this evening"
"Howdy.... Come sit down and sit a spell"
The reflection in the glass was interesting.... We looked for little green bugs but alas, all gone!
For those not there, we had a little praying mantis on the window atg the last dance.... He was gone tonight!
Around the floor we go....
Everyone else are still meetin' and greetin'
Gentlemen.... Your looking good
... Two Agent 007's
"Did you hear the latest???"
"Great... The last guest has checked in.... It is time to dance!"
Great centerpieces.... White hydrangeas
Hydrangeas are moderately toxic if eaten, with all parts of the plant containing cyanogenic glycosides.
Did You Know? - Hydrangea (pron.: /haɪˈdreɪndʒⁱə/; common names hydrangea or hortensia) is a genus of 70-75 species of flowering plants native to southern and eastern Asia (China, Japan, Korea, the Himalayas, and Indonesia) and the Americas.
By far the greatest species diversity is in eastern Asia, notably China, Japan, and Korea. Most are shrubs 1 to 3 meters tall, but some are small trees, and others lianas reaching up to 30 m (98 ft) by climbing up trees. They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though the widely cultivated temperate species are all deciduous.
"Hold still.... Stop dancing.... Smile"
Looks like our photographer is happy about the shot
Working up an appetite for the great meal which about to arrice
Around the floor we go....
Swoooooshing around the floor.... At one with the music
Great music
... The band members must know how to dance!
A beautiful room
for dining and dancing
Simply fantastic music....
Wyatt keeps the guys in control.... Or it is visa-versa???
Did You Know? -
Wyatt particularly enjoys playing ballroom music because it gives
him the opportunity to play his own renditions of the stellar composers of the first 70 years of the Twentieth Century that include Gershwin, Berlin, Kern, Porter and Van Heusen.
A career educator for both Los Angeles and Lompoc Unified School
Districts, Wyatt has always considered his musical endeavors as an avocation which have included childhood movie appearances, casual Local ’47 work in his late teens, a composer and book writer for a musical comedy, and that of a live, musical performer modeled after the likes of the late Gil Bernal of Spike Jones fame.
They can play anything... Tonight is no different... Bingo is coming
Keeping the beat
Wyatt is about to through us a curve... A pre-dinner Mixer!
Circling the wagons
Eight couples... This is good
"Well, hello there Big Boy"
A beautiful place to dance
Watch the speed limit there....
Gary and Elaine
float across the floor
Romantic evening with the Rondeliers
Swooooosh....
The room is so big that we have plenty of room
Did You Know? - A ballroom is a large room inside a building, the designated purpose of which is holding formal dances called balls. Traditionally, most balls were held in private residences; many mansions contain one or more ballrooms. In other large houses, a large room such as the main drawing room, long gallery, or hall may double as a ballroom, but a good ballroom should have the right type of flooring, such as hardwood flooring or stone flooring (usually marble).
The largest one is the US is at Cedar Point and it was called the Colisuem Ballroom and it was 20,000 square feet in Sandusky, Ohio.
