Years ago we went to upstate New York to a dance camp hosted by Jay Ungar and Molly Mason at Ashokan. We had SO much fun. Although Molly grew up in Washington state, she had spent time in the Midwest on Garrison Keillor’s Prairie Home Companion Show.
When Ken and I danced a polka Ken swung me ALL around the floor as other East Coast folk danced mainly in place. After the dance Molly commented, “Well, it was obvious who was from the Midwest when we played the polka!”
