Hippie Towns

“whats yer fave hippie town?
Ever been to Nederland,Co.?Pretty organic dude.Got seaweed?”

“Taos is still pretty hippie.”

“Moab's got hippies.
cowboys and hippies-its a gruesome mix.”

“There are pockets of hippies to be found everywhere, but it ain't like it used to be.”

“Still some communes around Taos, I hear. Soon they will have Prowler up there too. ;-)”

“I visited the Lama Foundation in the mid seventies. I was impressed, and wished, at the time, to replicate what they had done there. I remember most clearly the meditation room with a huge octagonal window looking out over the valley toward Taos. Beautiful, I tell you.”

“where's the next harmonic convergence?”

“Santa Cruz

All of Sonoma County, especially the lower Russian River

Willits

Eureka

Mendocino

Ferndale”

“Bisbee, AZ”

“Sweeeeet.Should i bring seaweed or kelp?I have some quartz rocks.Should i bring them too?
Is it harmonic convergence yr round in SCruz?Been a long time since i been that way.Maybe i can hitch a ride from LA with the GreenTortoise or some hippies at venice beach.”

“Nederland, Co!! That's a grand town! I love Yonder Mountain String Band!”

“Come to Asheville, NC...we got them by the vans full!!!”

“Sugarloaf, NY... it used to be a hippie commune in the 60's.. the hippies are still there, and they own most of the antique/trinket shops in town. It's a pretty funky place, and you can get some killer deals on some unique items.”

“Burlington, VT. i think if i lived there awhile, i'd get old and crotchety and start grumbling about "those damn hippies"...LMAO!”

“Most hippie towns have turned into tourist traps.”

“Eugene, Oregon”

“fayetteville AR”

“Dunk, I disagree with you about Sonoma County. It's a pretty big bastion of uptight conservatives who commute to SF. However, there are a good number of hippies there, also.
I live in the town formerly referred to as "the Berkeley of the Midwest".”

“Toas is the hippiest town I have ever seen!!!!

Quasta, NM is getting loaded, and a little town on the border of Col, NM north of Toas then Quasta.”

“Dunk's right about Sonoma county, I have some customers there who run a free clinic for the underprivliged, the women are in their 50's, don't shave their legs, etc. Also have some out on the Russian River, that area is indeed hippie haven, like Mendocino, etc.

Further east in the foothills, there's an Ananda village near Novato which is very weird, even by Northern CA standards, and that's saying something.”

“I don't shave my legs.....”

“FREEK!”

“Musician!”

“Moab....definately Moab.


"Berkley of the MIdwest"???

Either Carbondale Il. or Madison Wi. Right?”

“why have i heard of neither "Moab" or "Taos"??”

“Because, Lyra, you are young and have been protected for far too long. It's time to spread your wings a little. There's a big world out there.
Big Wave, try somewhere closer to the exact center of the US and you'll get it.”

“Taos, or Toas if you spell like Prowler, is just another tourist trap with a lot of wannabees in it. They dress the part on weekends and go to their yuppie jobs during the week.”

“You've never heard of Taos?

Julia Roberts has a ranch there. Hot spot for liberal celebs. ;-)
World class downhill skiing.
Solar Music Festival
Kit Carson home base.

KTAO, Voice of Taos”

“is all mountain bikers with racks on their SUV's and drinking micro-brews at night.”

“Forget hiking in Colorado, Lyra. Go on an educational trip to Taos and surrounding areas. You'll love it.”

“Julia Roberts, now there's a hippie.”

“It drips with sarcasm.....”

“Apparently you don't mountain Bike. Moab is THE Mountain Biking Mecca....of the world. Folks come from all over the world to ride The Slickrock Trail, Porcupine Rim, and one of the hundreds of other world class trails around Moab.

The 24 hours of Moab is one of the touoghest, ost grueling endurance mountain bike races around.

And considering it's in Utah, it is suprizingly Hippie central also.”

“liberal celebs, now there's a play on words.”

“I guess you havn't ventured up Kane Springs Canyon and found the enclave of VW Microbuses surrounded but a funky bluish haze......”

“2mph=bacpac?”

“Micro-buses and dopers don't always = hippies.”

“Microbuses do not = hippies
Dopers do not = hippies

Microbuses AND Dopers = hippies.”

“Oh no, I'm busted. Pathman, if had to guess, you'd fall into the wannabee catagory.”

“yeah, i need to get out. i definitely don't mountain bike, BWD. i don't do anything on things that move around underneath me...no skiing, no skating, no biking, no pogo-sticking. hee heeee.”

“No, microbuses and dopers don't=hippy
but there are some of these
around Taos!

Get some coffee or go back to bed 2mph.”

“wannabe what?”

“Pathman, how about Madrid, NM? Hippie enough?”

“yep, Madrid is pretty hippy. Earn a living doing arts, crafts and music festivals, live in an abandoned mining shack.”

“2mph, if you EVER been there then you would know that in town YES , torist yups, but take a trip to the masa, or even back behind Three Peaks and you'll see that there are MANY of poverty stuck hippies., Which I call those types "Dirty Hippies". You will find most of these Hippies tending to small farms, working in coffee shops, livin where ever. Not associating with the yupps unless they have to "work". Check out my link I dont think there where many wanna be hipps there at all!!”

“please4 tell me the definition of a hippie. I now many that dont do drugs, that do use them, and you just .......never mind you so stuck up you hermie whole that your balls are eaten at your brain. You better get those cut off you hermy!!!”

“Prowler, you were there. Proof enough.

By the way, who spelled those big words for you?”

“she should type like a man when you become a man!!!”

“Pathman is wise.

2mph smells like bacpac, or bacpac smells like 2mph.

Either way, they both smell.”

“The Luna Mesa cafe right outside of Fruita, Utah is the hippiest place I think I've been to. (Maybe it was just a really good day with fine altitude.)”
