What a fabulous milonga to start out the new year!
Thanks to Kelly for playing host while Lu Ann was in Chicago on
business....and she didn't even get to go to a milonga there....too
much snow! An outstanding turnout, probably the biggest we've ever
had. (Maybe Lu Ann should stay away more often.)

brother was in from Denver...always great to have another experienced

November LexTango 2nd Sunday Milonga at Victorian Square
5:30 p.m. till 8:30 p.m., 401 W Main Street, Lexington, KY 40507
The only place in Lexington where you can dance Argentine Tango
under the old-fashioned street lamps and still be inside! This month's
milonga hosted by Ron and Judith Gariepy.
Good teachers and good friends are hard to find. Thank you Ron
and Judy, for being both, and for taking responsibility for the
2nd Sunday Milonga while Kelly and Lu Ann were in Bloomington getting
a dose of close embrace tango with Susanna Miller. Several beginning
level students attended which always thrills us. You've got to dance
to be able to "dance".

Linda and Louis Bailey hosted a milonga at their Richmond studio
during the "Dan and Pier Weekend". Thanks guys!. Dan and
Pier did an exhibition tango for us. A hard act to follow, no doubt,
but we managed to dance till around midnight. Thank you to Ron and
Judy for giving us the opportunity to study with these fabulous
teachers. They have fallen in love with Kentucky, so hopefully,
they'll be back!!

A wild and WINDY afternoon! Alice saved the day
by running home to get a splitter for the amp (Thanks, Alice!) and
Kelly took time out from removing the HUGE tree that came down on
his yard/house/driveway (Thanks, Kelly!) to help set up, before
going back to chainsaw duty. All's well that ends well.

LexTango Milonga at (the new! ) Natasha's Bistro
7 p.m. till 10 p.m.
No cover. But management appreciates it when we eat
and drink. Gene and Natasha are moving the boutique to the corner
storefront, and the size of the restaurant will double. Walls are
coming down! Good news for Tango Dancers. How hip can one place
be? See www.beetnik.com.
Welcome back, Ron and Judith! Thank you to our
servers at Natasha's...it's challenging to keep up with us...we
don't stay in one place!! One couple that came to observe was celebrating
their 25th anniversary. Harold gave them some pointers.

LexTango 2nd Sunday (but really the 3rd Sunday for August) Milonga
at Victorian Square
5:30 to 8:30 p.m.
The only place in Lexington where you can dance under the old-fashioned
street lamps and still be inside! Primarily Traditional Argentine
Tango music with some Nuevo and Alternative music as well. Lu Ann
DJs. DeSha's Restaurant and Bar, The Chase and Brooklyn Pizza are
all open before, during and after the Milonga.
We were featured on the home page of LetsDanceLex (thanks, Mark!)
for August. That helped seven or eight new people "discover"
us. We missed you Dwight (and Lynda!). Get better soon. Four people
from Cincinnati made the drive. Thank you Rita for hemming the table
cloths! And Kelly as always for carrying the big amp!

Psssst! Meet at Al's Bar, 6th and Limestone, at 6:30 this Friday,
July 25th. We'll clear away the tables and dance Argentine Tango
till 8:30. It's OK, the Management knows were going to do it! In
fact, they WANT us to do it! Music will be some traditional and
alot of nuevo and alternative....cause it's that kind of place.
What kind of place? Some Al's Bar virgins showed up to find
out! OK, so maybe the booths could use some new vinyl, but Al's
is the up and coming hot spot where the hip, the artistic, the political
and the poetic of old and new Lexington come together for discourse
over cheap food. So why not Tango?
