I attended the Doo-Wop Dance at Prairie Ridge on April 20. This was an outstanding two hours of entertainment. The performers and staff of Prairie Ridge are to be commended. Great Job. And on to memories.
When I decided to mark my calendar and take in the Doo-Wop, I remembered that I had a poodle shirt, saddle shoes and a can-can slip taking up room in my closet, so I decided to dress for the dance. I bet most of you gals of that era have forgotten what fun it was to get all of that skirt crammed into your car. Then I remembered the cars of that era and decided there was a lot more room in autos of that day, so it was probably not as difficult to scrunch that bulky cancan and circular skirt into the seating area of a passenger seat. Remember, that was the days before many gals took themselves to the dance.
Now I would not remember anything concerning the following, but it must have been a challenge cuddling up to your date when you made the tour through the “toolie weeds.”
