Off to beautiful Nova Scotia for a few days, should be good times. Going to visit the folks for a couple of days and then down to the valley for a dance workshop. I'm pretty happy about getting to the dance workshop, been a while since I've been to one and am looking forward to learning new things and meeting some dancers.

Spun some fire last night with Lou and Julie, great time. Did a bit of contact dance, felt good to be down by the river playing!

Guess we'll go spin for the folk tonight who'll be out to see some fire works. Good as time as any.

Happy nationalism day, eh.
