Don, thanks for the info. We too are sticklers for line dance etiquette. I just had to pipe up about your general Thursday note. I hope folks do as suggested because brand new dances are sometimes hard enough on their own without adding in what it takes to keep out of the partner dancers way. I personally like to dance ont the otside edge because I take small steps and try to watch for partners dancers. I can adjust to give them room. If we all look out for one another (regardless of where or what you dance) it makes it better for all. Thanks again for the info i'll pass it along to my group. Either way I will be in your area in November for training so now i have a place to come dance. Thanks K.
