I always suspected there was an undercover hippie movement on UW - just did not know how strong it was.

Keep the confessions (and awesome throwback pictures) coming people.

 

BTW Rene and John cannot be a part of this movement -  in another world maybe, but not this one.

Hippies Definition:

'(especially in the 1960s) a person of unconventional appearance, typically having long hair and wearing beads, associated with a subculture involving a rejection of conventional values'... etc

Reminds me of the old arguement - Are hippies born or made?

It was the 70's for me.   IMO hippies can be born or made.

It is Janis Joplin and her 1964 hand-painted Porsche Cabriolet.

I was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO envious that a class mate of mine got to go!  Since I was in high school at the time, of course my parents wouldn't let me; and I did beg.  My class mate that went was a guy.  My parents were great parents; I just didn't fully realize it at the time-lol.

Truth time.  I was never anything even close to a hippy.  I was in high school and college but was rather conservative and "preppy".  IN the 70's, I was a young wife and mother and then a young single mother.  No time for anything else!

However, in the spirit of complete honesty, one of my best friends from high school kidnapped Patty Hearst.  True story.
