So we made it through Hurricane Irene! Pure madness from the Earthquake that surprisingly shook the East Coast, leading up to the vicious Hurricane Irene, the East Coast had its share of natural occurrences for 2011.

The Lindy Hop was still being danced in the 1950s to rock ’n’ roll at sock hops; and was the jump start for the dance styles of the 1960s and 1970s.
