Today was an entirely Tango day. I left Fayetteville in time for [1] more
classes in Mount Vernon, MO (population 4000), where [2] Karen
Whitesell has an incredible Tango house with a grand ballroom and largely
dependent on participation from outside Mount Vernon itself, such as [3]
students from Missouri State University in Springfield (Becca, Victor, Mandy &
Bethany). [4] Lucas from Córdoba, Argentina, invited me to visit his
family in Córdoba. Various others came from the region, like [5] KT from
Tulsa, and [6] Lydia and her husband from Memphis. And, of course,
nothing like a bottle of [7,8] Argentine red wine to unwind after the day
of Tango!
