Debra, I have to admit, I like to polka too. My dad used to take me to Pigeon Banquets, where the old men used to go around & take me dancing with them, & used to love it! That's one of my good memories too! I miss allot here in FL, being away from my family, though my dad is gone too, so that's won't change, & don't really see anyone from those days either!! When I went to OH I did see one of my dad's pigeon buddy's, which was so cool seeing his pigeons, & my kids liked them.
