    Did she stay a hippie or did she fall out of the hippie lifestyle?

    *Someone’s* raccoon? That’s the raccoon of Jefferson Airplane drummer Spencer Dryden, which famously disappeared during their 1968 show in Sacramento and led to the epic fight that broke up the first incarnation of the band and was never solved and you know it. Your mom is in deep trouble.

    Looks like Laguna Beach! Definitely would make sense given the Hippie craze @ the time.

    Early or mid 70’s, I think, judging by that car.

    Raccoons look so cute in pictures
    But every one I see in real life looks like they want to rip your face off.

    Great picture. I love your mum’s expression, happy and laid back. Could you pass on to her that I think she has unusually beautiful hands?

    The raccoon reminds me of Mick Jagger. “Is the picture over? Okay please can we move on?”

    my apologies if this is too personal but where did you find this photo? I often find my grandparents photos when i look through their photo album or jewelry box.

    showed this to my dad and he thinks this raccoon might have belonged to someone in my uncle Mike’s crowd at the time. my dad was still in LA (too young for the scene in the 60s) but his older brother ran off to laguna. Wonder if your mom and my uncle crossed paths. crazy how similar laguna looks then and now, thanks for sharing this
