sockhop with sandy!

'Tis true and for real! 

I started off this day with two hours of dancing 'with' mi amiga Sandy!

She had invited me to join her at AARP's "Daybreaker Live! Rock 'n' Rollin' Spring Fling: A Sock Hop Dance!

I had dressed to party down, with my favorite skort and the hot pink socks with the big white hearts - woohoo!

Don't I look like a dancin' queen?

All I need is a tiara!

(smile!)

As it turned out, the 'dance' lasted about an hour and a quarter.

See that duo on the right?

Well, he goes by the moniker "Daybreaker" and he was the one "Live" in this zoom; she led us in some warm-up moves and meditations for about 40 minutes.

On the left is "The Vintage DJ", with the inside joke being that he spins oldies and is an oldie - hahahaha!

My favorite parts of the soiree, though, were with the live groups.

The Swayzees were somewhere down in Key West, starting us off with a medley of "Do You Love Me?" and "Twist And Shout" - now, that's the way to start a party!

I don't know which bar they were at down in Florida, but I love that lighted sign over the mirror!

Pursue Happiness

That could certainly be my mantra!

(smile!)

Postmodern Jukebox was cued up in the bottom half of the event.

Coming to us over the ether from Los Angeles, their "Feel It Still" sang of being "a rebel just for kicks now," and that they'd been "doing it since 1966 now".

Hahahaha! Hahaha! Ain't none of them old enough for that!

(smile!)
