A little background…
Found my passion for dancing in Southern California. Was out dancing 5-6 nights a week. Went to The Press Box every Friday where all the PROS would come out and dance with everyone. Press Box was a dive bar connected to Westminister Bowling Alley but it was heaven for dancing. Kenny Wetzel set the stage, welcomed everyone, and ensured everyone danced with everyone, setting up gang dances for visiting PROS. Afterwards we would go to The Westminister Cafe where Kenny Wetzel, Mary Ann Nunez, Mark the Marine, and others would share their stories and themselves. Was a wonderful time to be dancing and the energy was amazing. Would have probably done better in my dancing if I had not blown out my ACL and MCL in my knee when my binding did not release while skiing. Moved to NY after a 19 year vacation in Southern California to care for my parents who are now both gone. Took a lot out of me but I am glad I did it. I am a Social Worker, caring for others, and needed to do the same for my family. I still LOVE to dance. Am proud to call myself a dance slut. Any time I am sitting, I’d rather be dancing. Lost my edge for asking people to dance. So please do ask me to dance. I will always say YES. I am a sensitive soul. One thing that may surprise you is that I am shy. It surprises me too. This picture is from the Renaissance Faire in Southern California, 1985.
GET READY FOR SPRING, RANCHERS! Dancing far and wide.
Here are the details for the Gays for Patsy’s Annual Hoedown, Spring Stomp!, down in Provincetown, Massachusetts, April 25-27, http://www.gfp.org/stomp.
