Actually, I wrote it for my 69th birthday, which was on Oct 1. You see, when you are born, that is your first trip around the sun. Then you have your first birthday, which is actually your 2nd trip around the sun. I am so happy the dance is being called! YAY!! The only tricky part seems to be having the Neighbor gent end the swing in good time, to allow the Lady to transition smoothly into the Mad Robin with their next neighbor.
Amy - I will be up your way for my actual 70th birthday, on my Septuagenarian Tour with Audrey Knuth and Amy Englesberg! Hope to see you then!
