Beach Dance Party!

by Jessie K on February 10, 2013

In a small town, it’s easy to complain about there not being much to do or nowhere to go at night.  What I’ve learned is that you have to bring the party no matter where you live.

Exhibit A:

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERADo you feel the party just been brought? This is my patented Sears action model pose.  I was rehearsing it last night in preparation of a Beach Party Dance Club I was invited to, a party so fun it reaffirmed my conviction I don’t need to live in Buenos Aires, New York or Madrid to have great night life. All I need are friends with equally low shame and questionable taste.  A sound system is a must, too.

Here are my partners in crime.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERACan’t you tell by my suggestive pursed lips and snappy pose I rarely say no to a poolside slot machine? Now where did I put my dacquiri?

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAWhat a DJ! He laid down everything from pop to old hip hop to salsa to house and had the floor jumping for three to four hours straight. I was in Psy heaven! I’d show more pictures but I don’t want to incriminate any upstanding professionals out there.

Let’s just say a good time was had…

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA…by all.

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERAThe hosts even had art tables set up for anyone hankering for some Bacardi-infused creative expression. The works were very avant garde.

It was great to catch up with friends. I feel like I never see anyone anymore.

A terrorist showed up, too…

Next time you get bored with your town and your life, consider throwing a dance party.  It does wonders for the soul at the expense of maybe just a bit of your dignity (I speak for myself on that one).

Thanks for the awesome night, Javier!

Classic Fairbanks-style party! When it’s 40 below and the nearest big city is seven hours away, having a themed-indoor party is exactly what you do. You can even crank up the wood stove to make it extra hot.

Oh my gosh! What a party! So much fun and so many guests! And an artist’s corner? This host thinks of everything. No wonder there is a mob of people.
What fun!
