78.5

i danced with her last year. fun!

at the festival, i ask her to dance again. she is sooooo comfortable. after the song, she tells me that she had taught dance a long time ago; gave up dance for 40 years; only to study Tango five years ago. (i am doing the math in my head.)

i tell her that she feels fantastic.

she tells me that she is seventy-eight and a half years old, with a twinkle in her eyes.

i gasp.

we dance two sets in a row. for almost 25 minutes we fly along the line of dance.
