Tie Dyed Tales Of All Shapes And Sizes

I'm creating yet another blog involving tie dyes, however this blog is going to focus on the wacky, crazy and zany stuff that I may or may not be remembering exactly how it happened. And, of course the names shall be changed to protect the innocent and the guilty alike. For many years now I have told tale after tale of mischief and mayhem from various destinations found along the great highway beginning at my driveway. I often revel  in the shear bliss that I found traveling from city to city intent on boogieing into the dawn. The music was actually alive. It was its own entity capable of thought, emotion, love and humor. I was just along for the ride. The likelihood that I was in a tie dye was relatively high. I spent a little time on the mountain. I spent a little time on the mountain. I spent a little time on the hill. I saw things get out of hand. I guess they always will.
