Pat Vos, now Frehafer gives a nice testimony about here acceptance with us at 5th and E. On this page, ...

The Hippie Parade: The Tin Can Parade
http://thehippieparade.blogspot.com/2012/12/the-tin-can-parade.html
My favorite stories lined up one right after another, in no particular order. Monday, December 24, 2012. The Tin Can Parade. The water is shallow tonight. Muddy and almost warm, snaking by in slow motion. And the edge of the sky sways a little.just above the dark forest of skinny little cypress witch fingers.their knotted hands waving. It's a spooky little night. And a good one. On this silent night. You'll hear the the merry "clink" of wine glass to Beer Bottle. In my little hippie imagination. I have n...

The Hippie Parade: Can you see me now?
http://thehippieparade.blogspot.com/2013/05/can-you-see-me-now.html
My favorite stories lined up one right after another, in no particular order. Tuesday, May 21, 2013. Can you see me now? You're standing on my doorstep. January rain dripping down your nose. And not at all,. At your totally o kay ness with just parachuting right back into my world. Half a dozen years older. I offer you coffee and you'd rather a beer. And I know then what I knew all along. You're more fun after 5 o'clock. And in my imagination. But, I see you now. Words and artwork (C) Singleton. From Mai...

The Hippie Parade: Coffee with one sugar and all my Dreams
http://thehippieparade.blogspot.com/2013/04/coffee-with-one-sugar-and-all-my-dreams.html
My favorite stories lined up one right after another, in no particular order. Friday, April 12, 2013. Coffee with one sugar and all my Dreams. And the sky sits low,. Crawling just above the ground. Gray and damp,. Wheezing like an old dog. Curled on his muddy backdoor rug. And yet, it's delightful. Something about it is Old Soul. Comfortable. Familiar. I park my crickety old self on the park bench and sip coffee in the quiet just outside my door. I breathe better here. Under the simple skies. 8 mile love...

The Hippie Parade: And We Painted the sky......
http://thehippieparade.blogspot.com/2013/09/and-we-painted-sky.html
My favorite stories lined up one right after another, in no particular order. Friday, September 06, 2013. And We Painted the sky. They dipped the socks into the paintbucket,. Pudgy little fingers stirring wildly with. Making mud the color of a thousand eyes. When we flipped the bucket upside down and a dozen psychedelic snakes slipped out. Their laughter rocked my world. This is the music the God's listen to. The Sky and the clothesline on a sweet Summer evening, tye dying with little ones at the river.

The Hippie Parade: Spooky little Blues Cruise
http://thehippieparade.blogspot.com/2013/04/spooky-little-blues-cruise.html
My favorite stories lined up one right after another, in no particular order. Saturday, April 27, 2013. Spooky little Blues Cruise. We drifted.teetering a little to the left, a little upstream, or maybe down, and thicker into the Swamp. Eyeballs everywhere. Giant beak nosed vultures, 1000 years old I'm sure, sat perched at Sentinel Guard, staring down at us.Waiting. Their beady little eyes darting. Giving us the once over, in case we suddenly became just stiff enough to gobble up. Take me to the river.
