Dear Mavis,
You are very welcome! Al Olson has written some amazing
dances......most of them in one or the other of Larry Jenning's books.
I hope you get to dance this one sometime soon!
warmly, Linda

There is one! and one of my favorites. It does not include any Rory
O'More
slides, but it does include the long waves. Here it is:

Hello callers,
Curious if anyone knows any contra dance that contains both Rory
O'More type
wave(s) *and* contra corners. (Besides the dance Rory O'More
itself!) My
online and book searching thus far has netted nil.
Thanks!
