After more than two years, things are starting to open up. The children have been back to school for a while but now masks are not required. Plane travel is soaring and there are crowds at the PDX Art Museum, where masks are still required-thank goodness! But while I’ve not been tempted by the few tango opportunities to appear so far, that’s changing too. I’m thinking it’s time to get the teaching dvds out to remind myself of whatever I may have forgotten, especially with respect to leading. Alex’s Wednesday mid-day practica has started but I’m not free until after Easter. Perhaps the Saturday one or the Tuesday evening opportunity. I’m not feeling ready for a full on milonga quite yet, especially since there’s yet another new variant popping numbers up again. I do hope we’re at the tail end of this long, long Tango Fast! Nevertheless, I reenter with caution.
