Author's Notes:
Background: Rodney Miller's fiddling has inspired many of my compositions. His son, Asher, when encouraged to say "swing" at dances would always reply "says swing." The dance is dedicated to the entire Miller family: Rodney, wife Jane, and their two children Asher and Elvira. The tunes "Elvira" and "Asher" (in the book) written by Rod, work well with the dance.
Editor's Notes:
The out of set moves and tight timing of B1 make this dance difficult for beginners.
This dance is from American Country Dances On Line
