Anyway, now they have a milonga there once in a while. There were mostly beginner/ing dancers there - but that didn't stop me from having fun with a couple of tango babes. Actually three or four. It was fun.
Also, a killer wood floor. Very nice, smooth, almost too slippery.
Building Exterior :: 1 sec exposure/handheld (a bit blurry)
Main Ballroom :: Low light/high noise
Adjacent Ballroom :: the newbies were in here practicing and playing
The fireplace is handcarved marble...with a level of detail I have never seen...
The main staircase :: intricate ceiling medallion overhead
Overall, a very nice experience, worth the almost 2 hour drive...if only there were a few more experienced followers...

The experienced dancers were at the other milonga on Miami Circle with some lovely 'live' music. Two hours from Callanwolde is......???? I thought you were in Austin.
I saw the other milonga on the Tango_GA yahoo site...but chose Callanwolde based on architectural considerations...now I know my options next time...thanks for the tip...
What a gorgeous place for a milonga! I'm with you, Alex, I would go there just for the building and next time try to bring some friends with me.
Where is this place?
Atlanta
