I am in no rush to find out!<br /><br />Fireblossom~ Why, yes I did! And yes it was!<br /><br />And, no, not yet but maybe late tonight or tomorrow (I am behind on last week's magpies altogether).<br /><br />Oh, and, thank you for later on emailing me a shot of the b/w poster that you had on your wall when you were a kid. It is marvelous that you found it online, and it is a marvelous poster!Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-5821632068335317312010-10-19T08:24:44.761-07:002010-10-19T08:24:44.761-07:00You returned in triumph, girl.

I think I was 12 when it came out. I had a b/w poster on my bedroom wall that showed some hippie girls holding candles, and it had a quote from Abraham Lincoln, saying "It is a sin to be silent when it is your duty to protest." My mother hated that poster! But I loved it. I wanted to be those girls.Fireblossomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07040525704916368792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-2530127837708906982010-10-18T12:08:06.171-07:002010-10-18T12:08:06.171-07:00Loved the pics, glad you had a wonderful anniversa...Loved the pics, glad you had a wonderful anniversary. hard to believe Barry is 75.

(Speaking as one who knows. wink.) <br /><br />Who'd have ever thought that so many of us Sixties People would end up having to carry our dandruff around in our hands?bfkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06141624725868808411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4039445774186145767.post-58231766862417274182010-10-17T01:24:57.017-07:002010-10-17T01:24:57.017-07:00Muse Swings~ I admit that I did not listen to any ...Muse Swings~ I admit that I did not listen to any of his current songs while briefly at his website. I hope he had a happy birthday. And, yes, The Christy Minstrels really were wonderful!<br /><br />kj~ As you can tell from this post I too feel scattered and have been unable to attend to the reading/commenting I so want to. I think everyone understands, as it must be something we all experience. In the meantime, I am so honored to be sharing the sober life with you. Now, as for the state of my windows, you would not believe how much they need to be cleaned! :) <br /><br />madamebutterfly~ Thank you, and thanks for coming along in a virtual sense!<br /><br />Caren Gittleman~ That is so interesting that your husband may be a twitter friend of Barry McGuire's!
