I was born in 1948 (baby boomer) so my time was the 60's! A road trip in my senior high school year (1966) in a new Ford Mustang via Route 66 from Chicago to LA. Weekends in San Francisco from Travis AFB (1967-1968) with lots of time in the Haight Asbury District, listening to poetry in Golden Gate Park, concerts at Filmore West and Avalon, Market Street, tons of grass to smoke, love beads, incense burners, all the sex you ever dreamed of, bell bottoms, head shops, black light posters, etc. Drove my 1959 Austin Healy Bug Eyed Sprite all around northern California. I survived a year in Vietnam (1968-1969), discharged in 1970 then onto college and so on. Moved onto Fiats, Triumphs and Porsche's which was the natural order of things.

Looking back at age 72, we had a social conscience back then, 1968 was a horrible year, both in the USA and Vietnam. Death and uprisings always in the news. Today reminds me of the late sixty's but throw the pandemic in for good measure. You had to experience the 1960's to truly understand it all, but it has strongly influenced me to this day and I am a better person for it.
