I was asked to choreograph this dance by Sue Hardy for her husband John who very recently passed away. John was a country line dance instructor in the UK. They both taught and danced from almost the inception of country line and couples dancing in England. I met them about 7 years ago when they visited Cactus Moon in Tucson. John was a very special person. He always looked for the best in everyone. I count him as one of my very wonderful friends. It was requested that this dance be to a George Strait song and be happy and fun because that's the way he always was. I always remember him with a smile on his face. He is missed.
