Hello Gainesville Area Dancers and Friends,
West Coast Swing and Hustle dancing this Sunday starting
at 7:00, not 6:30.
We have the room at 308 W University only until the end of May.
After that we will be doing something different. Do not know what yet.
Take advantage of these last two months to practise Swing dancing
and learn the Hustle.
April 11 Will Tucker is having a birthday party at his
house for his brother Jay, Theresa and Richard, whose birthdays
are in March. Everyone is invited. Contact Will at tuckerhigh@aol.com
for directions.
April 12 we will be having a belated birthday party dance
for Theresa and Jay and welcoming Theresa back from her travels.
We will have a short lesson and then dancing for a couple of hours.
This party is open to everyone, whether you know how to swing
dance or not. There will be a mix of music and a fun time.
See the Gainesville dance schedule here.

Article: Always Get Out of the Car
Picked up my niece from school today, and after annoying her
for a bit, I stopped by a couple of stores looking for something.
She said, "I will wait in the car."
I told her, she should always get out of the car.
"Always get out of the car" is one of those entries in my
version of that book that we all keep of Rules To Live By.
Even if it is only for a minute, I always try to get out
of the car. It makes me feel like I did something.
My niece reminded me of a story my dad told.
My dad had a factory in Live Oak. For fifteen years he drove
70 miles each way to and from work. He built the factory from
nothing to a big operation with hundreds of workers.
I used to work there in the summers and on school breaks.
From the outside all you could see were the corrigated steel
walls. Inside was an impressive place with hundreds of sewing
machines, cutting tables, a warehouse of fabrics and thousands
of finished shirts being shipped.
One day when we were coming back from a trip, my dad thought he
would swing by the factory so my sisters could see what my dad
had been doing all these years. He wanted to show off his factory
and made up an excuse that he needed to pick up something.
He pulled up to the factory door and said, "Do you want to
come in and see the factory?"
All they had to do was open the car door, get out and walk
ten feet to the factory door.
"Nah, we will wait in the car," my sisters said.
