Sanguine Tenacious Tidings

Yellowstone horseshoes and square dancing

Well, 55 degrees ought to be very pleasant if its dry western heat.

I never played horseshoes. It is played here a lot at family reunions but is mostly a man's game even there. I remember watching my dad play when we were at family gatherings. It seems to me there was always a discussion about rules before the start of a game. And, I think they played games as individual since pairs might have been difficult depending on how many wanted to play. I was quite young I don't remember many discussions about the game after it was played so my young at heart observations could be inaccurate. If your going to play at the camp site you could tie rope into circles and play like ring toss.

As children we all learned square dancing in grade school. One of the favorite music classes. Then later during dancing as a 6 weeks endeavor we revisited square dancing.

There used to be square dancing clubs in the area for adults that met once a month complete with attire specific for the event. I don't know if they still exist or not because several years ago ball room dancing sprang up as the adult recreation to join.

Calling would be fun. "Swing your partner high and wide, now doosy doo down the line."
