Thanks, Ally and Jennyccs! Easy, breezy fun is definitely what I was going for with this one, so I'm glad you found that to be true. I can't help smiling when I'm dancing this one, so I really appreciate your comments!

A nice Advanced Beginner dance.

Thank you, Metaltigger! I debated on how to classify this one--either High Beginner or Easy Improver. I appreciate your input and have to agree with you after getting feedback from others as well. Glad you enjoy it!
