Dancing days

Yesterday was a day devoted to dance! I spent the afternoon going with my American little sister Ali to the dance studio for some tap dance training. Ali is the current Miss Sonoma County and is preparing a tap routine for the Miss California pageant in July. Here's a recent article about her: Miss Sonoma County

Later at night we went out dancing at the Yacht Club in Cotati, celebrating Ali's final college exam! We're feeling a little sore today...

I've told you about my animal fascination in an earlier post. Another thing that intrigues me is trees. Climbing roots, crooked branches and odd symmetries. I went to explore the scenery at Table Rock Lake a while ago and found these pieces of nature art.
