Playing the Cotuit Contra Dance with the Free Raisins

Last night we played the cotuit contra dance. I had a really good time; I think we were playing really well. This is the second dance we've played since amy got back, but it's taken a little while to feel familiar with her playing again. Looking forward to our next dance, 8/27 in kingston, and to playing the first friday dance at the scout house in the fall (11/4).
