Author's Notes: Composed for Rich Mohr's 40th birthday. The author prefers that the ladies roll the gents in B1.

REMARKS: The Spanish Ballroom is a superb dance venue. Built in 1933 and restored in 2003, the art deco style ballroom has a wonderful sprung 7700 SF maple floor which can easily handle 6 lines of contradancers.

This was the last contradance before the break. There were 3-4 lines of dancers before and 2-3 after the break. Attendance was affected by cold temperatures and highway traffic.
