A funny little memory that popped into my head a couple of days ago...Don't think I have written about it before...

I am ten years old and Mom has just bought a record player that comes with forty free records! It arrived in the mail and we have had such a good time listening to them all. My favorite is "Follow the Swallow" (back home)...

However, the real fun began when Laura bought one of her first ever records - The Bristol Stomp...

Kids in Bristol are sharp as a pistol when they do the Bristol stomp
Really something when they join in jumping when they do the Bristol stomp
Ohhhhhh oooooh.......

Laura can really dance

I can't

But if my big sister is doing it, I will too

So every noon hour I come home from school and head up to the bedroom I share with Liz. I put on the record, move the mat between the twin beds and

STOMP....STOMP! STOMP! STOMP!

It was a small house and our bedroom was right over the living room....

Bless their hearts, no one ever said a word...I come from a kind family.

And I never did learn to....STOMP!
