DANCE:         64 count, 2 wall Easy Intermediate Line Dance   

The first 32 counts of this dance is the original dance called Boat On The

River. It is a great little dance but the music goes for over 4 minutes and I

was asked to put some more steps to it-so here is BIGGER Boat On The River!!

Choreographers Note: Hope you enjoy BIGGER Boat On The River.

I am responsible only for the last 32 counts and had nothing to do with the choice

of music-which I happen to like …...in spite of it's non-country origin. It's a

catchy little piece isn't it! See you on the floor sometime…    Jan
