I must say, I really love the hippies who get together on Sundays. Every time I walk past you all on my way to and from work, it really makes me smile.
You all are so happy to be around each other, I always see you hugging and laughing and just enjoying life. Playing your drums and hula-hooping.
I don’t know much about hippies, but from what I’ve seen, you’ve got your happiness figured out. One of these days I’m gonna get over my shyness and stop and join in. —Lover of the Sunday Hippies

i swear people are trying to bait bitchers 🙂
Aw Hell, Live and let live sez me. (Easy for me, I don’t live by the commons) And I know I can expect the same courtesy in return on Airshow weekend. Right?
You may like them but when they bongo out in the early am, you piss people off.
Even hippies need to sleep in on Sat and Sun.
Please, join.
I don’t know who is “bongo”ing in the early AM, but it sure as hell isn’t us.
The circles usually wrap up as soon as it starts getting chilly.
What happened to ear plugs?
What about Allan Jackson concerts which are amplified like crazy? We have only a few drums going from noon until maybe 10 or 11, and whenever I leave the commons to get food or otherwise, you cannot even hear it from the outskirts…
please join next week. just pick up a hoola hoop you see lying around, or join a hack circle. or just give some one a hug. we’d love you to stop by.
Real Hippies believe in Free Love.
Sunday, is it?
oh geez… we’re being invaded.
Quick, someone tell them there’s a sale at the nearest vintage clothing store.
They’re probably high, and if they’re not, you are.
Hey Lover!
Please please please join us! And thank you for all the love! Come smoother it all over us!
Hey lover!
Please please please join us! Thank you so much for all the love! Come smoother it all over us!
tell’em jerry garcia rose from the grave and the dead are play’n in frisco 🙂
‘smoother’ it all over us???
double whoops.
“c’mon, join us!” famous last words….
right up there with the rape-tastic,
“don’t fight it”
to zZz: a comparison to rape? whoever-you-are, you’re either seriously damaged, have no understanding of how offensive that is, or both…
to everyone else: with all the recent violence in the area, it is possibly the best way to ensure everyone’s safety to take back the commons in a peaceful and fun way… come out to enjoy it, or do your own thing, but either way, help the “Common People” take back the “commons”, for the good of us all…
I can only hope that season 3 of “Deadliest Warrior” opens with “Hippies vs. Swarmers.
Won’t be a dry seat in the house.
To original poster…WE LOVE YOU! Come Join us and we’ll smother you with Love and Hugs and cuddle puddles!!!
Viking, I’m both damaged and lack the understanding required to be sensitive and/or conservative. you’re obviously new if you even had to wonder….
I do use rape likely more than I should though….
ie, Alberta is raping the land….
BP is raping the ocean….
kay is raping that goat….
