TWO LEGS, 4 LEGS
Ohhh! I just loved to watch the 1930's vintage social dancers last weekend at the History of Spanish Village kickoff....celebrating 80 years of artistic existence for San Diego County residents!
Dancers dressed in vintage costumes boogied to songs and music of that glorious era when 'Gone With The Wind' and 'Wizard of Oz' were created. I watched the dancers interact with dance steps specific to different forms of dance!
Oh! How it would feel to be a 2-legged and dance!

Brandon, my poodle buddy, and I, wag our tails, spin around, and tap our paws for doggy dancing.
We sat next to the cookies and tea, closely watching and hoping for dropped pieces of cookies to eat!
Laurie, Sue and Janet, volunteer artists at the village, spent most of last year researching the beginnings of our village.
Come enjoy what they have to share!
In the photo, Elizabeth, to the far right, is wearing her grandmother's sister's vintage hat! OOO-LA-LA!
Roots and History are important.
Lai, in studio 26, said there was a Chinese Exclusion Act, during the birth of Spanish Village.
Sylvia, in studio 13, a Native American, said her people were still on reservations.
Jihmye, an African-American, said at that time, Blacks were separated from Whites.
And now, on our 80th birthday, Spanish Village has spread its roots and branches of history to be inclusive to all....providing you are a San Diego County Resident.
It is a colorful and diversified tree.
Trees are good. They give us shade and something to dig under.
And remember, my dears......
