When our shuttle bus was approaching the Convention Center this morning, we could see that the area had been transformed. People were streaming towards the Hoopfest gathering. A whole series of basketball hoops had been set up. We watched for a bit. Each goal had two teams of three pitted against each other, with referees and onlookers. It was a very festive atmosphere.
We danced with Bob and Barb in the Advanced hall and the Challenge hall.
We got an email message from Terri. They arrived safely in Tokyo, exhausted but excited. Tomorrow they'll be househunting.
This evening we shared dinner with our friends. Ed and Marlyn grilled salmon and everyone contributed something to the feast. How many RVs will seat eight for dinner? Ed and Marlyn's did (with a little help from Wes and Jenske--they brought over some chairs and two very interesting square TV trays). It was wonderful to spend time with our old Rogues friends. We only wished that Tom and Nanci had been able to be there.
It was a great ending to the 2012 National Square Dance Convention.
