For the next 3 plus weeks the "Rainbow Gathering 2016" is in VT. I enjoy people watching but wow this is different and tends to make the people we have seen in Walmart look formally dressed............. I just can't explain but patchouli was heavy in the air.

I had to Google two things so far.

Patchouli and Brony. Actually three - Rainbow Gathering 2016.

Woodstock was more my speed! LOL

I had to google this too. Kinda reminds me of the grateful dead followers.. Weren't they called the dead heads?

Well.... this is the current generation of hippies (self proclaimed). No ones in charge, no boundaries and so far a few very poor decisions. Now on a good note I understand they do a great clean up job unlike the old hippies of the original Woodstock.

Yeah I've been trying to talk my wife into Burning Man as well. :rockon:

Bonnaroo should be an interesting experience in my mid 40's! :faint2:

It was allot of fun in my early 30's:D

My Ex is a Burner. She is part of the group that builds that big unicorn. I have zero interest. If I am going to go to the desert and fry my ass off, I want a lake to jump into.

This is exactly how my Admiral feels!

No Lake!

No point in frying!
