Earth Day#1

I remember earth day, there seemed to be an innocence and hope back then that's missing now.

Medgar Evers, Malcolm X, MLK, RFK, Civil Rights, Vietnam, Stonewall riots, Watts, ...not so innocent...but less cynical about the long run...

The Road Less Traveled is a good book. I read it years ago. Also on the road less traveled there are less potholes and the like. Unless of course it is a dirt wash board. Have a good trip traveling.

I remember the day John Lennon died. I was working at a zoo in the fund-raising department. No Internet then so guess I heard it by word-of-mouth.

I remember the ice cold burn and white flakes from spray on deodorant.

Flower Power

Travelinglady · Mar 07, 2020 at 11:08 AM

I'm watching a show about the hippies and all that culture. So, I was thinking about flower power, too!

I remember that it was a big, big deal for men to have long hair. Like I had a trading card that showed the Beatles with really short hair.

I remember lining up in the gym and everybody had their arm bare and the big air gun that produced the scare as they moved down the line. Nobody got out of it and nobody was allowed to make a fuss.it was a military like operation. To this day I have a round scar where they "shot" me!

JFK's physical fitness program===Yeah more gym time!
