While the A section is pretty variable and the B section, with its iconic swaps across the ring, is what identifies any "Lanny's" dance, I believe this is the original version of the dance. At the very least, it's the version I last heard Erik call.

Heidi's original dance replaced the B1 with
LLFB
Ladles chain
Ladles full hey right
but I have both too many dances without Neighbor swings and too many dances with long lines - neither of those are necessary here, so I opted for the B1 above.
