A dwindling %, even for hippies. =[ Seems the thugs and vatos are taking over. At least here in Austin that seems to be the pattern of the last ten - fifteen or so years.
I recently went to a boot camp style GED program in Sheffield, which is in west Texas almost to El Paso. The program consisted of me and at least 90 other 16 to 19 year-olds from all over Texas from El Paso to Brownsville. Besides me, there was only New Age swag there along with just some eccentric nerdy kind of guys. And besides that, there's this event over by the Renaissance festival full of "hippies" every October I think. They camp out, trip, smoke, play naked janga and stuff like that. Lots of drinking too.
Dear groovygirl ...... This is Texas ...... Hippies are UNWANTED If you smoke marijuana ...... Then you are UNWANTED If you engage in creative thought ...... Then you are UNWANTED If you love Rock-N-Roll ...... Then you are UNWANTED GOD BLESS ...... John Wayne ...... Clint Eastwood ...... The Dallas Cowboys ...... Rush Limbaugh ...... Fox News ...... Country Music ...... Duck Dynasty ...... Joel Osteen ...... And all the good Christian Conservative folks who are making America great again.
Here just south of San Antonio near the border. Looking for some friends. There aren't very many open minded folk down here.
