Making An Impact Using my Creativity

I've always wanted to make an impact in rueda de casino in my area, always wanted to express my creativity and at long last I find that it is coming to be. I can see rueda de casino eventually becoming what I wish it to be. Teaching on Tuesday, working with my very own rueda de casino group...it's frustrating, but also wonderful for me. So far, I've introduced vacilala ocho to Binghamton and Ithaca, and taking it one step further vacilala as a common entry point into al centro. Now I working on people getting familiar with use of suffixes such as no llegas, por atras, and exhibela to make moves more flexible, and will be introducing new ones....but the next step is easy blending such as Ketucky-Setenta and Abanico-Ponle Sabor. I can't wait!

Grupo Calle Uno and I Were Never Meant to Be

One should almost always be given another chance and so tonight I checked out Grupo Calle Uno from Rochester,NY, once again. And, I was once again disappointed. Drinking and playing do not go hand in hand. Or it may just be something else...I may not have much musical training, but I definitely heard some decidedly unpleasant squawking from the brass, among other things.

Bye bye Grupo Calle Uno. You and I were never meant to be in the same room enjoying each others company.

Nature's Quirks

On the drive home a little fox ran in front of me across the road
At home a mouse squiggled/squeaked by underneath my toes
As I lay on the grassy slope
Gleaming lines, sparkling blobs = snails here and there
Lots of little things at an odd time of the year
Is it the weather, could it be?
Or...just me?
