#32 count intro (you will start slightly before the lyrics)
Clockwise rotation; start weight on L
Choreographer's notes: The song starts immediately with no intro, so I've chosen to wait 32 counts to let dancers listen to the lyrics by Jackson Brown. To make the dance easier for more people, I have kept the steps simple and there's only one wall change. This is dedicated to all the California line dancers whose lives have been devastated by the wildfires ongoing as this is being written. Thanks to my student Carolyn W. for telling me about this song, and to Michael Barr, Michele Burton, and Rachael McEnaney-White for spearheading relief efforts in support of our line dance family.
