Seacrest

Pleasant surprise at the Seacrest last night - a decent sized dance floor! They had promised me 8 by 10 feet, but it was 15 by 18 feet, almost 4 times the size. I got a nice little crowd, six couples who enjoyed the music, got the lesson.
The band was very good. They did the songs I asked for, "It's so Easy" and "Roll with It", (dance teacher propaganda) even though those are, they said, "Rock song" and theirs is a Swing group, specializing in Big Band style. The music they gave us for our demonstration was actually Foxtrot, smooth croony stuff, but you can do Swing to Foxtrot, and Jimmy and Vera did so, looking good. Eventually, when I asked him to, Joe went into a bit of swing too.
Lovely room there on the beach,Oceanside Dining Room. Great guacamole, mussels, and some passed appetizers, which ended up being dinner.
