Girls gone wild at MEMF

The final concert went quite well, and was well received. After, there was a reception with hors d'oevres and cash bar...and a MEMF tradition I was not aware of...the MEMF polka band. Evidently this one girl and her grandmother play accordion, and a boombas and fiddle rounded out the ensemble. All the best people were on the dance floor...Sarah and Sherry danced almost every dance. I got swept up by a sweet young thing, so how could I refuse? But my knees gave me hell. Ellen Hargis and Tom Zajac did a number of dances, with Ellen improvising high vocal descants. People were taking turns on the boombas, even Marion (she's a better recorder player). Insanity reigned. Next year I'm bringing my euphonium, damnit...that ensemble needed bass. Lots of good clean fun for everyone.

But now for bed...day comes too early.
