6034 - You Can't Sit Down


I saw this on a FB post. It's from the good ol' days. What really got my attention was the footwork of the girls back then. (1963)


Unfortunately, it's too easy to sit down these days.

They look like they are having fun - and are much more co-ordinated than I am (or ever was).

The dexterity of teenage ankles is a thing to behold.

Sue - I don't think I ever had that kind of coordination.

Kirk - They're just flipping them around like there's nothing to it.

Back when Agnes and I were dancing in competitions, we were nimble enough to do stuff like that. Now, they make us stop because the creaking of the joints makes it hard for other dancers to hear the music.

Love all the "Midge" hairstyles!

I haven't seen a jacket and tie on a teenage boy at a dance in eons!

Yeah, getting up again is the problem (I am 79).

Margaret (Peggy or Peg too) said...

I give it a 78, it's easy to dance to. :-)

Oh, to be young again.

Mike said...

Bill - I could never do that.

Deb - 60s for sure.

Stu - I'm right there with you. 77 here.

Peg - Not anymore for me. 😥

Kathy - In my next life I'll try and dance more.

The men's footwork was equally impressive, but why stay crowded around a circle with so much empty space in the middle where you could move without bumping elbows?

Mike said...

River - Probably something to do with the camera angles.
