Some folks have wondered how I looked when I went through my hippie phase in the late 60's/early 70's. That's me in my new avatar, hanging out of the passenger side of the "Greatful Dead" Heads' VW Bus.
Love, peace and tranquility through sobriety, my AA brothers and sisters!
Yeah, Wren, at least the music was good then, eh? I wasn't quite yet into my full blown alcoholism in the early years, but was definately on the path.
When I reminisce about those good old days, I always remind myself not to get that way about the grass and wine, as I see now the destructive road they took me down. I can still get nostalgic, though, about the camraderie, and the music, and the youthful sense of exhuberance ("I'd like to teach the world to sing").
