Yep sure did go to Woodstock the summer I graduated from high school The add'l recreational stuff was not something I was doing cause I went to an inter rural school and with the exception of a little home grown the chemicals hadn't really made it this far north except in the tourist areas. enough said on that subject LOL Woodstock rain rain rain and MUD and urine smell. My buddies and I drove down on Sunday crawled thru the fence and made it to the pond area. Met a few really nice people shared their blanket and we all drank the beer we toted in and listened to the music It was dirty and the fields were trampled but the spirit of the event was over powering. The general population was totalled and the security was over whelmed but they pretty much had the place sorta under control I do not remember anyone being mean or hateful got to love that, man. LOL 37 years ago I was a rail thin 18 y/o virgin with the world laid out in front of me. Shocked at the actual freedom to dress, say and do what one wished. A threesome (OMG) on a hood of a car. I had just graduated from a high school that had a dress code... Girls - dresses or skirts (knee length) Boys - slacks and shirts yes, it was a public school. Woodstock was the beginning of my journey...college was next and then job, marriage, children.... I took the "hippie" freedom of thought with me... and passed it on to my children (oh yeah the music too.) Thank God we live in a country where this is protected by a Constitution. Remember "don't do the brown acid" ADK

Very, very cool. Thanks for the insight. The music of that generation still plays on my IPOD today. Thanks for answering my question ADK!!You have only six years on me but a world of difference from a 12 year old living on a Naval base to an 18 year old rolling onto that playground right from High School.
Obviously, you have posted some things that a complete rendering of the details would be appreciated.

Dress a bit weird sometimes No No No 'bueford you dress people weird sometimes when they can't dress themselves. As a former hippie your a pretty cool person, your music choice isn't all that bad and you sure make for a fun night out at the INN.

horse - I take it by your post that you have actually experienced trailer lights that do work? I gave searching for them years ago in favor of looking for unicorns and the holy grail. Best, John

Global warming fanatics, people with accents who think every one else pronounces things wrong, people who assume because somthing is on the internet, it is correct. People who do not take the time to verify anything but pass it on with the caviet "I saw , read heard". People who think they have to have four wheel drive, but never get off paved roads.

Hippies???? Now come on thats sad... Thats a whole generation of people and some of us grew up to be right decent folks We joined the NRA Drink decent beer and tequila Dress a bit weird sometimes Raised our children to be respectful to God, country and family blood and extended Worked paid taxes and voted Tried to get the world to sing in perfect harmony so come on cut the hippies a break (we are not all bleeding heart liberals) I went to Woodstock it was one hellava party.... Memories ah the memories ADKbueford and proud of my generation the working class; the veterans and the hippies. Now that's a good one. I don't know what I was. I grew up on a ranch in Wyoming and had to have a crew cut until Jr. High. As soon as I could I let my hair grow out. My dad used to have a police siren on his feed truck to call cattle out of the hills for feed time--I cranked Led Zepplin through the same horn when I fed. I wish I'd of made it to Woodstock. But I did make it to the National Finals Rodeo with a pony tail. But yeah, NRA all the way man. I'm 40 something now and back to short hair again, but it's all groovy. I guess when you live in (or at least near) a small town like I always have, cliques have a hard time forming, or at least being too narrow.
Too many people buy stuff they don't want, with money they don't have, to impress people they don't like!

Shudder.

Ah, the good old days, when we were allowed not only to not like certain things but were allowed to express our dislikes without hearing sermons from the righteous about how we shouldn't do so.
