I love those G Scale Trains and the amazing work which goes into the
landscape, etc. One of these days I may get into doing that. This
isn't our final house so it won't happen in this garden, but maybe our
final house...impermanence permitting.

Not a test just a few fond memories. I sort of remember 1969 but
married in 1972 and had five kids . A blur for sure.

Meanwhile I ordered"A problem from hell" an was reminded of Balzac
admonition that the only sin there is wanting to know every thing.

I have lots of rocks that I've hauled home from my favorite glacial outfall
pile. And a few (two, I think) pieces of wonderfully contorted driftwood
but not much else.

What do you have in yours?

Oh, wait, on rainy days I have a large pale green trash can that I put out
under the leaky gutters to catch rainfall for use on dry days.

Generally here and there are
Frogs, toads, lizards (of the 'statue' kind) 1" to 1'
The above-- of the Real kind
Tables, benches, trellis, walkways of brick, pine needles, bark
Some pieces of driftwood
Bird feeders and houses

Front of house: arbor, birdbath, bench (turquoise), lava rocks
Meditation garden: Angel, St Francis, cherub, Buddha, Kwan Yin
all are small, glider type bench
Fern garden: rocks, green artglass bottles on a stump with a
round mirror in back on the fence, natural rock basin with a
water drip for the birds (searched for years for this)
Razzle Dazzle garden: sculpture made from a (discarded in the
neighbor's trash) bentwood end table on a railroad car wheel base
Garden shed: old screen door with sweet peas growing on it.
Various 'artifacts' old garden tools, sprinklers, watering cans
rusty stuff etc (all artfully arranged of course)
Butterfly garden: 2 artificial BFlies, arbor into vegie garden
Faerie garden: garden fairies and a lecherous gnome
Other: Rock turtle sculpture made from 7 large rocks, total
about 36 inches diameter
sculpture made from 3 concrete blocks and several naturally
round rock spheres
Solar clothes drier

All of this sounds like a lot of stuff, and it is; it is arranged so
that most
of the smaller things are hidden in a natural habitat of foliagerocks,
and
some 'disappear in summer, and I 'find them" again in winter.
Others are placed so that only one is in view at a time.

Two lifesize wire figures of a man and a woman

I have a sculpture of a big boxer dog made out of rusty barbed wire. His
name is "Freddy Kruger" and after I placed him in the driveway I nearly
soiled myself everytime I saw him for the first few days as he scared the
living daylights out of me.

I remember 1969, but don't remember much after that.

The Summer of Love was 1967; fortunately I was too young
to fully enjoy the festivities, but I did get to see The Dead
and The Airplane play for free in Golden Gate Park. Janis Joplin
was living in the Haight and still driving a car with a bad starter.
Friends would have to help her push the car so she could bump-start it.

When she finally made some money, the salesman at the Mercedes dealership
tried to run her off. He thought she was a deadbeat hippie, until she
pulled cash money out of her pocket and raised a rukus for someone to
sell her a goddamned car. *smile*

How to put this tactfully? It's because you were reading the papers and
not rolling them. Hint, hint, nudge, nudge, say no more, say no more.

I was in the Haight and people were trying to find a way to live that
made sense. Meanwhile, over in Berkeley, students were trying to work
inside the system. We both got creamed. Guys walking up and down the
sidewalks wearing the same suits, the same shoes, same sun glasses and,
with the same camera strapped around their necks. What we need now are
new Church and Rockefeller sub-committees that put a spotlight on the
abuses (CIA assassinations, collaboration with the Mafia, discrediting
by illegal means political and civil rights leaders, ad nauseam) and
shoved the monster back into the bottle. You don't really have to
remember 1969 because "it's baaack".

That took me a minute. Never had any interest in that "culture".

Honestly - I have begun to think that dirty politics started a long time ago
- like the beginning. Just remember that Lincoln suspended the writ of
habeas corpus....
