The music is playing

There is a highland dance competition going on across the street in an auditorium. I took the nieces. I even paid the the entrance fee. Thank goodness for free entertainment, especially if it is the same song and routine ad nausem. There was some variation. A few of the dancers were significantly less clunky than the others and approached something like real grace.

I am not sure how they are able to dance around on one foot for so long without pulling something important. My working theory for the moment is that Highland dance originated at local fairs and festivals in Scotland when unwitting spectators to the caber toss had a 200 lb log land on one of their big toes.

I need to start making some plans for the next few weeks. I am not sure at all what I am doing past sunday; but that's the fun of it I suppose.

Sam's Summary

• There is a hopping on one foot competition accross the street.
• It is Scotish
• I am a bit Scots myself
• ergo I am good at hopping on one foot. (see dunking)
• I don't know what the day after tomorrow will bring
• It has been too cold to do any further biking.

Take care,
