I recently found a gift in my Dad’s Caddy. Now mind you, I sold this Caddy a year ago last October to our neighbor and when he called to say he was planning to sell it, I said, “I’ll buy it back”. It was a cherished vehicle in our family with great memories, and I still miss my parents!
So what I found tucked away in the glove compartment that was missed between exchanges was an old cassette tape with no label. The first song that played when I tested it out was “I’ll Be Around” by the Mills Brothers, a favorite group of my parents with lovely harmonies. I could hear my Dad’s beautiful voice singing along. I wept! My parents were very good dancers and singers, very classy people. They gave me my love for partner dance. With all that separates us these days, let’s connect and move together to the harmonies of our shared music. Please join me in November at Dancing Prairie for Dance of Connection on Friday nights. |
