I got a kick out of watching Amber and Daniel's wedding guests stumble around the rooftop, trying to figure out how to do-si-do and circle left.  These people are Midwesterners and don't know how to square dance?  How shawking, LOL.  When I was growing up square dancing and folk dancing were a regular part of gym class.  Murph seemed to be the only one with a clue.  It was a cute, funny scene.

Also loved the look on Phyllis's face when Amber called her "Mom."  Watch out, Amber, you've just gained a Monster-in-Law!

I'm a Michigainian,  and when I was in fifth grade I remember learning to do the Virginia reel in gym class.  To be perfectly honest,  I thought it was a lot of fun.

    We square danced in gym class too. I grew up in Pennsylvania. At the time we all hated it because we always got paired up with the dorkiest boys. Now thinking back, I think it would be fun to try it again. I loved that scene yesterday on the rooftop.

  • I always felt like a misfit in gym since I wasn't good at sports, but I looked forward to square dance time. Dorky boys notwithstanding! - Peridot

    That was really a treat was it not? I can't believe that as westerners those folks were not familiar with square dancing. Don't they have barn dances in Wisconsin? Too bad, Murphy left out allemande.

  • Wouldn't you just know Murph could list square dance calling among his many talents? LOL. - Peridot
  • can hardly wait until ice fishing season comes in :>)
  • Yep, if we don't see much of Murph over the winter, we'll know where he is! - Peridot

    I'm a mid-westerner through and through but as a young teenager, a bunch of us were square dancers. What fun! I loved it and when I watched them today I had to laugh and recalled the wonderful times we had square dancing---and knew how to do it. Well, we had learned and after a couple of years of it who could go wrong? It doesn't even take that long. It made me think of how much I miss that kind of fun.

  • A friend of mine in college had a square dance at her wedding reception. Today's show brought back the memories of what an absolute blast that was. - Peridot
