The big event this month is the 11th Regency Assembly, this year with a masquerade theme!  Other than that, this is a quiet month between the wildness of September and November, with just my usual New York/New England travels and a bit of DJing.  I'll be making some short research trips mid-month in my continuing quest to track down every tiny little American country dance/cotillion manual in New England, and then I'm spending a few days in Florida with family.
