the double progression may not be obvious because it happens in one move - a R&L thru on a diagonal progresses 2 places

Twirl into the G's Lt. 1+1/2. However, I don't see the double progression... as I read it, you progress in A1 and then all the play is with your current (new) neighbors until the dance begins again. -Don On Thu, Feb 6, 2014 at 8:07 AM, Tom Hinds <twhi...@earthlink.net> wrote: > > Aahz, > > Nice dance.
