70's Hippie Theme
August 12, 2023

On August 12, 2023 in honor of Mandella’s 70th (!) birthday, she chose the theme of 70’s Hippies for our Monthly GNO theme. Easy peasy, but where do you find bell bottoms anymore?

A nice Boho blouse from Fara’Asha.
Chocolate munchies.
And a reminder of the days of "enlightenment."
So appropriate.
Peace out everyone!
Remember the disco balls?
Mandella back then. Hippie girl!!
Patty Hearst???!
Prom photo: Nancy and Mike Burnside.
Toenails painted and ready to go!
Read all about it in the Nambah News.
Take out food for dinner. Hippies don’t cook!
Yum!!
Let’s eat!

On to the party!

Dave and Barbara. Peace out…Love to all.
Fara’Asha
A little dessert toke…..NOT!
Temporal Passports duly stamped…flower power!!!
Fara’Asha is Boho chic and ready to dance.
Bahira is thinking about it.
Come on! Let loose!
I need a little incentive.
Ok. Here we go!
Aah…there she went!
Must have been the No Hash Brownies!

Now for the performance part of the journey.

The planning session for our “performance”.
We’re not quite ready yet.
One last “toke” before we take the stage.
Ok, girls. Let’s get our glitter tambourines in sync.
Ready! Heck yeah!
Thank you…. Some Kind of Wonderful video.
…thank you very much. Our tour starts tomorrow.

Now for “family photos” -- And a retrospective.

Fara’Asha means “butterfly”. She had indeed transformed from the 70’s little caterpillar to jeweled butterfly in her 70s.
