Hippie Homecoming and Summer of Love

by Sandy Penny

The June 15 issue of the HorseFly is about to go to press. You can’t imagine the wonderful nostalgia pieces that take you right back to the ’60s. I’m amazed that Taylor Streit, with what he says went on, can remember any of it, much less in such vivid detail. Perhaps those flashbacks are useful for writers.

The article on anthropologist Alfred Hobbs’ arrival in Taos with the intent to study hippie communes fascinates.

Wait til you see the cover and the amazing Hippie Homecoming Flashback Quilt that Deb Villalobos made using photos from the hippie days.

The ButterFly section focuses on our rainbow life and how we color it with our perceptions. I have experienced some amazing demonstrations of the power we all have over our physical body and our experience of the world.

The battle of Miranda Canyon heats up.

Pick up your free copy of the Horse Fly around town at local businesses, or stop by the Horse Fly office on McCarthy Plaza at 100 S. Plaza, Suite C (upstairs by the financial group).
