The annual Blue & Gray Summer Cotillion is presented by 2nd U.S. Cavalry, Co. I. Dance Master is Tom Atkins, of the the 8th Louisiana. This year it was held at the Yorba Linda Country Club, Yorba Linda, California, on the 25th of July, 2009.

After the processional, Maggie and I danced a quadrille with the distinguished President Jefferson and Mrs. Davis and other charming couples.

The sit down dinner was quite good, too.
