My Experience: I took LSD and Visited the National Art Gallery in Washington DC... Surprisingly, Picasso "The Tragedy" was My Favorite Painting... I FELT COLD in my Body just looking at the Painting...
Warhol and Lichtenstein all seemed silly and trivial! That Night we all went to the Tangerine Dream Concert... at the Elegant Warner Theater... I was Concerned During the Show About the CO2 Fog that Spilled off the Stage and out into the Audience... Seemed Dangerous to Me... But We All Survived...
My In Laws came to Visit Us In Washington DC and when we went to Colonial Williamsburg my Mother in Law Rented a Wheel Chair... While it's Possible for her to walk, That tour involves a LOT of Walking... So When she went to The Bathroom, I Sat Down in the Wheel Chair...and IN PUBLIC, People Treat You Different if You are in a Wheel Chair... Many Assumed I was a Disabled Veteran... So... AS A PRANK I Stood Up and Shouted "I Can Walk! Thank You Jesus! I Can Walk!" - That Really Freaked Out the Tourists...

One of the high points of my life was performing "Uncle John's Band" at the Rainbow Gathering in Idaho. I met a young man and showed him the Chords and Lyrics that I had written down in my spiral notebook... After we played that song, he said: I don't want to learn any more songs, let's just play this one again... https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2019/06/one-of-high-points-of-my-life-was.html
We were sitting in the shade at the "Relaxation Station"... the very first place everyone walked past after leaving the parking lot...

During the First Year of my Retirement I experienced What I Called "Channeling My Inner Chewbacca." A General Rage... I felt Paranoia and it seemed like the Government was Watching Me. At That Time... My Blog was Very Popular and I was Ranting and Raving about the Injustices being done to American Citizens. It seemed that there were Many Unmarked White Vans that would park out front of the House. In retrospect... Read More! https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2019/09/during-first-year-of-my-retirement-i.html

Just like we all learned by Reading "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance" by Robert Pirsig... The Trick to Life is to PAY ATTENTION... NOTICE REALITY... https://gvan42.blogspot.com/2020/03/just-like-we-all-learned-by-reading-zen.html
So, Every Day I Test my Blood Sugar and BY PAYING ATTENTION and Keeping a Sugar Free Diet... I Have Prevented Diabetes... I find that Quitting Smoking Tobacco AND Cannabis... Has Given me Better Lungs and a Clearer Mind. Weed is Useful for APPRECIATING Music, Art, Food... but I Get More DONE Without Weed... More Music Videos, More ART, More Fiction Stories... Hey, Just because They Legalized Weed does not mean that I Have to Actually Smoke it...
