Hot spots to kick up your heels in the Flathead

Red lights illuminated the dozen-or-so couples scattered across the dance floor at the Blue Moon Nite Club last Wednesday night. April Howard wove through the throngs of two-steppers, dolling out instruction over her headset microphone and occasionally stopping to run through a movement with one dancer or another. The dancers were decked out in anything from cowboy boots to open-toed sandals and some bore intense looks of concentration while others easily laughed off their mistakes with a partner.
