I'm in my room at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Niagara Falls, NY. It's almost 10:00 PM. Outside my window, I see the flashing lights of the Seneca Niagara Casino. Quite pretty, actually. Haven't been inside, but I might get there before my time here is done.
I'm here for 5 days, attending a conference for Modern Western Square Dance Callers. I teach MWSD and have been a dancer for 26 1/2 years! Who says it's only for old people :-)
The Convention officially starts on Sunday night, but I am here with a friend who wants to attend a pre-conference workshop. I'm not going to attend that, but there is an "Open Dance" on Saturday afternoon and evening in Amherst, NY (about 20 miles away) that I will attend. After supper on Saturday, my friend (another Wendy) will go to the evening dance with me. Just a fun day.
Sunday, I'll find something to do to fill my time before the official start of the convention at 5:30 p.m. I'll probably go to visit the American Falls - I was to they are 12 minutes walk from here, if I take a right as soon as I leave the hotel. 12 1/2 minutes would put me in the water. Don't want that! I'll have to time it and see if the guy was right.
So, check in sometime Sunday for an update...
