For better or for
worse, this snowy scene is what the bell tower on the campus of Minnesota State University
in Mankato looked like in the pre-dawn hours of today -- November 6, 2019. As
much as I would like to take credit for this photograph, it is not mine and was
sent to me by a friend who awakens mornings much/much/much earlier than I do. There was measurable snow "up north" long before today and a trace amount twice "down here," but this
is the first measurable snowfall this season in my neck of the woods.
Just to warm you
up a bit, also here is an old/old/old song entitled, "Everlasting Love," performed
by a Brit group named Love Affair. The singer is Steve Ellis, who was 17 at the time of recording, and the band itself fits my definition of "teeny bopper." I like the song and it certainly is made for
dancing -- shove the furniture aside and try it ....

From what I have seen, Anita, there were many styles of dancing during the rock 'n' roll era, some sort of ad lib and others with definite steps and body moves, such as the "nitty gritty." I discovered a guy named Bobby Banas who goes off into his own world when the music starts. There are a few videos of him on YouTube, if you are curious. He gets into the music body and soul.

I am not much of a dancer, but I like watching it and think many dancers are among the greatest athletes in the world. Check out Band Odessa on YouTube.
Signs of life .... there are an occasional few here. It might be more interesting to look for "sins of life" .... of which I doubt you will see any these days, although there have been many in times past.
Yes, winter is here. There have been heavy snowfalls to the north of me and to the south of me, but nothing significant for me so far. "Real winter" in terms of bitter cold and heavy snow did not actually begin for me until last February and continued on into early May. I hope that pattern will not be repeated this year.
I am glad you found your way here, Anita. Thank you .... take care and be good .... klemmer og kyss masse!
