Tuesday was a mini date-day; Mer took me to Chick-fil-A. Our girls’ basketball team was having a fund raiser at the restaurant that night. We like Chick-fil-A, and then we would get to support one of our teams as well. It was a win-win.

It was fun – we were cheered into the parking lot by a group of students, and the restaurant was bursting with CVCA folks. It was a casual evening, and we ate some good food. It was a nice example of community.

Wednesday Mer and I headed out to the Hibernian Club to go dancing with the CVCA Ceili Club. We danced for about an hour, and we had a good time. The only down side was that two of the students got sick to their stomachs after swinging a lot in one particular dance (the Rakes of Mallow). They had eaten heavily in Amish country on a field trip that afternoon, and their stomachs did not respond well to the dancing. Even with that, they thought it was a fun evening. It really is great to dance to live music.
