Thank you, my friend SGT (Join to see) for sharing the music video of Scott McKenzie performing his counterculture peace ballad San Francisco -
By the way the email for this post arrived at 0250 Romeo time on January 11

"San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Flowers In Your Hair)"
Lyrics
"If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there

For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair

All across the nation
Such a strange vibration
People in motion

There's a whole generation
With a new explanation
People in motion
People in motion

For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there

If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there"

Funny, always used to tease my wife about this song. She is a long haired Californian of the hippie era, but always refused to wear flowers in her hair just because of this song.

PO3 Bob McCord Wife is from the Bay area but is also far from a hippie, we met in 69 while I was going through training. Haight Ashbury was one of our favorite places to go to get some laughs.
