The Vanity Ballroom in Detroit was originally designed by Charles Agree and opened in 1929. It is an Art Deco building with an Aztec Theme and was used primarily for Big Bands until the 1960's. It had a 5,000 foot maple dance floor that was built on springs to support the many dancers that would be there. Benny Goodman, Tommy Dorsey, and Duke Ellington, among others, frequented here during its heyday. It originally closed in 1958, reopened as a concert venue in 1964 and later was used to host concerts by Detroit acts such as the MC5. There used to be stores all along the front, including Cunningham Drugs Store, which was a big chain of stores in Detroit.
Back to the coast, I had planned
on going to Corfe castle this morning as the weather forecast predicted a strong chance of mist but as I got closer to my destination I could see no mist. Plan B was to go to a place I had been to once during the summer in the middle of the day. Climbing down on to Dancing Ledge while it was still dark was going to be a bit of a challenge.
The mating ritual of monarch butterflies involves flying, hanging, and resting while staying connected for extended periods. One of my favorite photos of the monarch butterflies.

Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Oh, let me see your beauty when the witnesses are gone
Let me feel you moving like they do in Babylon
Show me slowly what I only know the limits of
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the wedding now, dance me on and on
Dance me very tenderly and dance me very long
We're both of us beneath our love, we're both of us above
Dance me to the end of love

For me, a dancer is part of an artist's entertainment - 'backup dancer' isn't even in my vocabulary.

It was not until I had graduated from college that I made a professional commitment to it. Frankly, I didn't think it wise. I was my own interior parental force, and it's very difficult to justify a profession as a dancer.

I heard a bull frog behind me in the culvert. Turned around and there was not one, but two!! At first I thought they were mating, but then somebody got very annoyed and they just went at each other. Standing on their legs in the water, wrapping their arms around each other and swaying back and forth as if they were dancing. Never saw anything like it. They probably danced for thirty seconds. In the end one disappeared never to be seen again.

Lake Erie has been dancing to her own music of late, as the autumn winds kick up some pretty sweet water. I often write poems/songs about dancing, which is rather ironic, considering I have two left feet, and I would make Elaine Benes look like she belonged on DWTS. lol I call this, simply, Dance, and is about using dance (whatever that may look like for you) as a way to make your problems disappear.
Dance
Dance, like tomorrow never comes
Dance, like when your heart was young
And you can keep on dancing
Even when the music’s done
Dance the night away until you dance into the sun
You can dance
You can dance
You can dance like tomorrow never comes
Dance like yesterday’s come and gone
Dance like all the sorrow and your pain is in the past
Don’t worry about the things that you can’t change
Dance into tomorrow don’t let sorrow hold you back
Dance the night away, hold out for the best
You can dance
You can dance
Even if tomorrow never comes, you can dance.
Dancing trees...
This morning, the landscape once again draped itself in a beautiful Dancing trees...
This morning, the landscape once again draped itself in a beautiful blanket of Dancing trees...

I think I just have this need to be a storyteller. That's why I wasn't a great dancer - I couldn't articulate a story. I was a better choreographer. I have the need to to just express myself in that way. I can't explain it.

Doing dance studio this week finally got to break free from backdrop today and go outside! killer sun but felt good
Went to the ballet and watched the Butler Ballet, from Butler University, perform Balanchine highlighting Serenade. It was lovely. The lighting wasn't the best for my camera, still I managed a few shots that captured the moments. I'm especially fond of this shot! It shows the richness of this piece where the color and their dance movements to the music was absolutely breathtaking.
One of my most favorite photos I've ever taken. Have a print framed in my home!

The Sandhill Cranes are the birds that "sparked" our interest in birding. They hang out in our area in Central California during the winter. The dancing ritual is great fun to watch. The bird in the air was one of the highest jumpers I have seen, making it look really easy to go straight up. I think the bird on the ground was pretty impressed also.
Just shooting the breeze ;))

This Grizzly Bear cub was learning to hunt salmon for himself and had a habit of standing on his hind legs to look around for food. As he twisted to scan around he really looked like he was dancing, perhaps doing "The Floss"? Most cubs less than a year old rely on their mother to catch fish but this one was managing it all by himself.
And does anyone remember the song "Simon Smith and his Amazing Dancing Bear"? It was in my head every time I saw this cub dancing. The song was written by Randy Newman but was a top ten hit for the Allan Price Set in 1967. John Cleese chose this as one of his Desert Island Discs in 1971
Dance performance “Care” by Helena Krinal & United Dancers of Zuga.
The dance performance “Care” focuses on how difficult, easy, depressing, and uplifting it is to care for someone else.
The collaboration between Zuga and Helena Krinal, which started by chance, turned out to be so interesting and enriching for both parties that they have now been researching and creating together for six years and have reached their third performance – “Care”. Previously, they created “Noise” (2019) and “Shame” (2021). “Noise” was nominated for the Estonian Theatre Award in the dance performance category in 2020.
Led by the Estonian Dance Agency and local cultural organizers, TantsuMENÜÜ brings dance performances all over Estonia.
