* On wall 4 there is a restart after count 12.

Kindly waltz straight back at 7,8,9  rather than doing a 1/4 turn left so that you

face the front to restart the dance.

This is a real country song 'cause Joni Harms only sings country songs. She's true blue

country  through and through…. no cross overs for her  -  I like that!  She wrote the song

too,  which shows the talent that this lady has  ..  AND she's easy on the eye . How lucky

can you get???

Hope you enjoy the waltz, it's not tooo hard, but it's definitely not toooo easy either.

See you on the floor sometime……  Jan
