Friday December 31, 2010 New Year's Eve

The Mnstf New Year's Eve party was in an area where buses back to Minneapolis weren't likely to run after midnight. I could reach Tapestry Folkdance easily by bus, return most of the way by bus after midnight. Or I could walk back.

So I attended Tapestry Folkdance's New Year's Eve celebration.

There were contra and international folkdance in separate studios. More than twice as many contra dancers as international dancers. I believe International was the core group when Tapestry started.

They had a dessert potluck. Two similar batches of cookies had signs saying "female" and "male." These got changed to "chips/no nuts" and "chips/nuts."

Noted on the schedule: In January, Nordic Dance would concentrate on polkas. Including Irish, Polish, and German polkas.

I did more watching than dancing; I'm considerably out of practice.

Oh -- I ended up walking both ways.
