I should say so. My dad and my mother certainly enjoyed themselves. I came along in early 70 :D

I was 10. In addition to the Apollo 11 moonshot (allegedly)and Chappaquiddick, a few iconic totems appeared....

Above plus Woodstock, Apollo 11 and going to the Chevrolet dealer with my buddy to buy a brand new 1970 SS 396, red w/ black stripes 375hp.

Also, things that I can't write about here.

One of the best years of my young life.

There are parts of '69 that I don't remember at all!

Just back from Vietnam and out of the USMC so I was having fun.

I was 12/13. I would like to personally thank those that paved the way for my experiences in the 1970's: 1973 was a particularly good, foundational year for me.

I was so in love:
