So, Let’s hit it.

The Activity Center of Lakeway.

In the front doors.

The lobby of the center.

A blown glass exhibit on the left as we go into the ballroom.

Here we are with a couple demonstrating a dance.

Another couple takes the stage.

Start right off.

The old guys come alive.

Great form.

A slow one. Better for this crowd.

The Arts Council placed a red rose on each table, which was very nice.

While the dancers continue, let’s go outside and participate in the music and food. I hope you all have a terrific week.
