Tonight's Gallup Indian Dancing

Tonight, Jessica and I headed into Gallup to see the nightly Indian dancing show at the McKinley County Courthouse's courtyard.

It was an entertaining show put on by a husband and wife dance team, Fabio and Shelley. They (or at least Fabio is) part-Zuni and part-Omaha Indian.

This was the third night attending the nightly dancing and the attendance was the largest.

Near the end of the show, members of the audience were invited up in a round dance.

After the show, as we were headed to the car, we noticed the Gallup Police putting an unruly gent under arrest.

On the way home, we stopped at a Sonic drive-in for some snacks. It was an enjoyable evening.

Here's a few photos of tonight's performance:
