'StateBlock' object has no attribute 'is_code_block'
Devised for the San Gabriel Valley Branch workshop at Lake Arrowhead, as an exercise in continuity. My grandmother used to live near Lake Arrowhead, and this is dedicated to her. There is no recommended tune yet.

Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (3). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.

Recordings whose titles are in italics are not explicitly linked to this dance but have been identified by the database based on the type, bar count, and recommended tune(s) of the dance.
