hippy hair and a red VW Mama and me wound around your heart brown van and my baby sister Your wages so happily spent tenting Our blue station wagon broken. crushed. wrote. but not so our Mama and we celebrated Ford pickup automatic and a sassy daughter. me pushing, pricking, slicing your heart but you never came unwound silver hair and a Durango to match my pretty Mama and you campin' in the mountains with happy grandkids My baby boomer Daddy |

Sunshine - thanks, I'm haven't shown him this yet Startime - good for you, it would have been so cool to camp with my grandparents. I can't imagine the fun they all have - its different than camping with your parents Thanks Passing Shadows |
