Brattleboro vermont sunday dance

Another huge contra dance for me was the brattleboro vermont contra dance that ethan from elixer used to organize and had invited us to attend several years before. I also was able to attend a rather sleepy fiddle jam prior to the dance lots of fun as well . Another highlight happened while I was playing fiddle in the brattleboro city park and a young family came along and to toddlers stood in front of me and started to break dance it was such a fun moment. The little boy came up and set aside me and when I stop playing he looked and me and said nice talent
