Want a little more romance in your life? There is some music that just makes you think — I love dancing to that classic tune! I'll be pulling out and adding to our favorites for this dance taken from the 1930s through the 1950s. Classic swing, Hollywood crooners, Blues from the greats and some Rock 'n Roll — kick up your heels "can't get enough of that" tunes! Have a favorite? Send it my way at lilli@att.net.
Wear something vintage if that's your pleasure, and come out and exercise your romance in this ever so romantic Fremont Abbey candlelit hall!
