robert Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Did any of you go? It is a huge hippie fest. Many of you would have loved it. Lots of crazy outfits, bodypaint, dreads, music, dancing, food, and more hippies. I saw a bunch of people I knew, but not sure if any were forum members. Tasha and I went with our friend Maria. We had a really fun time. We were all tired from traveling, staying up late, and from the sun, but it was an awesome time. We took a bunch of random photos, but I'll just share a few: Halfway through the fair, we got pretty hungry so I decided to eat 2 foot-long wieners from the Tofurky booth It was nice to get a good 24 inches of wiener in me to keep the party going. (Though my record is 9 feet of tofu wieners in one day - 18 6-inchers). They were really good, and then we got some organic freshly squeezed Orange Juice that Tasha found nearby. Anyway...some pics: http://a573.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/123/l_7336042a60cc6dc3d49fa9b5f2d3467c.jpg http://a702.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/121/l_a7cec929641e1bff10eb3db2abad0255.jpg http://a438.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/60/l_38056d51bc34276718fb58814e2a6915.jpg Kombucha Girls http://a436.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/96/l_2abdc7c6f38cb8b8b6979492bea6923b.jpg http://a417.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/3/l_204747f2758a121ebb52f0309039ab58.jpg Bumped into one of my really good friends from when I was a teenager: http://a358.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/59/l_21ffa59f18c2a2ceff8e5d734016e4c5.jpg Washer and Dryer....PT is parked out back http://a994.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/77/l_a7ad2b4d1b9b2a0988809db294b43939.jpg Getting into trouble again: http://a571.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/59/l_b0f3125c3a1f3ec26658f64a4684d8e2.jpg http://a682.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images01/14/l_43aacdfb38cf587d2dd4a7f8b6c5fd19.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaelhobson Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Nice pics, thanks for posting. It looks like you really know your way around a vegan wiener. I've heard of the Oregon Country Fair, a lot of hippies head there after the Rainbow Gathering. I hope to make it out there some day, really jealous of you west coast folks sometimes.

tuc Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 Looking good as usual, Rob! However, this one line was top notch: It was nice to get a good 24 inches of wiener in me to keep the party going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought of you immediately There are thousands of people there in a large wooded area. Tons of people without a lot of clothing, tons of big beards and dreads, dancing and music, good food, good people, good times. I thought of a handful of specific forum members who would have really loved it! Anyway, good times out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I almost went to that for one night when i was in Austin but my friend's hippy friend never called us back. It was apparently close by and I wanted to gorge myself on hippy potluck food so bad. I blame him forgetting on the weed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flanders77 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 dude, where did your shirt go? that was what came into my mind too when i first saw the pics. Since both of you do not know Thinthin (Robert) personally I have to tell you that he always takes his shirt off whenever there is a reason (which is almost always...)! And he likes posing... as you can see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
