Right-side up looked too boring!

Yeah, if you're not living it, all you hear is what the media reports.
I was 15 and didn't hear about it till afterward. I was still trying to "go to San Francisco" and put some flowers in my hair.
Spent alot of time protesting the draft and going to funerals of kids who either got killed in Nam or OD'd on drugs.
Even back then, I just wanted to have a place in the country and some chickens!
Great music from that era tho, Jefferson Airplane and Janice Joplin were my favorites.

I was just leaving school at 16 and starting my first job.... oh boy where have the years gone!

40 years ago my big, worthless, evil, sloth-like sister was born. Three years later, I was born, just to give her something to torment.

Wait. How old am I?

Oh, crud. I don't know, don't care.

Happy frickin' birthday.

August,'69. Coming near the first wedding aniversary and a couple months preg. Dealing with morning sickness, holding down a job and helping take care of chickens, turkeys, phesants, quail, chukkars, peafowl, rabbits, calves, cows and horses. My life was very centered in "my own world" and what was happenin' in the nor'east didn't get noticed much. I did keep up with what was reported about Vietnam as we had family serving there.

I'm a Nov '67 model, I don't really remember too clearly just what I was doing then.
We do have a rather diverse bunch here - I love it!
