----------------
Tag 1/Restart (Jazz box with big scuff) (Walls 4, 9, 10, 13):
1-2Cross LF over RF (1), step RF back (2)
3-4Step LF to left (3), big scuff with RF (4)

Tag 2 (Rocking chair) (Wall 12):
1-2Rock forward on RF (1), recover to LF (2)
3-4Rock backward on RF (3), recover to LF (4)

----------------
Shorter (and simpler) variations:
(1) If starting the song at the beginning and ending at the tempo transition (2:57), the dance includes only 2 tags (1 with restart (Wall 4) and 1 without restart (Wall 9 at end)) by completing a brief 9th wall (8 counts of dance + 4-count Tag 1 with no restart) ending at 9:00.
(2) If the up-tempo only portion of the song is danced, you will begin the music at the 2:58 mark. Start by facing 12:00 during the tempo transition, using this as your “intro” (2:58 – 3:12 in the music) and add a 2-count pivot ¼ left at 3:12 (to 9:00), just before the fiddle begins (step forward on RF, pivot ¼ left shifting weight to LF). You will begin the dance as written after your pivot.
One idea to hit the pivot properly is to count out the usual “5-6-7-8” in the music but put your right foot forward on count 7 and pivot on count 8. Then you are ready to officially start the dance, treating the 9:00 wall as Wall 1.
This version is lively (and fun!), and you will have 2 tags (1 without restart (Wall 2) and 1 with restart (Wall 3)). Tag 2 (see above) will occur on your 2nd wall (referenced as 12th wall above in full dance description) facing 3:00, and Tag 1/Restart will occur on your 3rd wall (referenced as 13th wall above in full dance description) facing 6:00. This version of the dance will have a total of 6 walls.

Thanks so much for your kind words, Jennyccs! It's almost as much fun fitting the steps to a song as it is dancing it. Glad you enjoy it!
