1969. If that was Canada by upstate New York in August you must have run into Woodstock’s overflow.
That’s an astute observation
I recall being with my mom in early summer on I 40 coming from Memphis where I took her to view antiques and heading back to Murfreesboro for her and Music City for me....I lived in town...in an old hunting cabin that had been part of Woodlawn plantation long ago....in the woods on stilts surrounded by Belle Meade basically.....two of my spawn were conceived either there or damn close to there lol
Anyhow we stop at an exit about an hour east of Congo on the Mississippi and we see this little toddler holding a sign board begging for money for food
My mom about shat right then...oh my god that poor baby....till the saw the Rainbow Nation crowd behind the child
Dreadlocks on whites and all the deadhead in the parking lot at the Meadowlands attire....dirty of course
Then it dawned on me...Bonnaroo
And they were....caravan to Manchester TN panhandling with the cherub
Mother offered to buy them all food at the Wendy’s attached...
She bought a good bit
We get a lot of that around here...it ain’t Santa Cruz but they still come
We got Gaskins Farm too don’t forget .....a place I know somewhat
