I think I was the only kid in my class which never bothered to " get high" at least once. And I can't really tell you why. Certainly not because I was not approving of it.... Remember it was the sixties.... Haight Ashbury.... I would visit for even short periods of time and have to wash the smell of pot from my hair.
Why didn't I partake? I have no idea.
Well maybe... I just didn't like the idea of smoking... never have.... and you know... thats generally what was offered.... and the other forms of " getting high" just scared me.
I thought.... if I can " trip out" the way I do..... Naturally... then I sure as heck don't want any kind of enhancement to that!
"Morgan" went to Antioch before he got into
Dads group.... thats probably enough said. Used to write to me about getting high and watching the sun come up over one of the dorms....<g>..walked with him recently over the same paths that he used to write to me about and I could see him there.... strange...... I have a feeling that he put most of that away when things really got serious around him... but my visit to New York City in 1966... New years eve... I was probably the only sober one on the whole block of Lower East Side! Its pretty darned interesting when you are the only one who ISN"T high..... overheard as one fellow was leaving a group who were in sleeping bags on the floor ( you had to step over them. scuse me scuse me etc..... and the guy said..... " You want me to wake you up before I leave or after I leave?" I said.... YOU PICK.)
Rose when we expand our book there are some things that need to be included!
