Coop posted today I Brake For Garage Sales: 1965 Ford Falcon Station Wagon. He’s obviously pleased with his new purchase, and it reminded me of a Road Trip in late summer of 1968 from Kalamazoo, MI to San Francisco, CA and back. We had just finished up at the Behavioral Science Institute at Western Michigan University and were headed to the American Psychological Association convention in San Francisco. It was my first time in Bagdad By The Bay, I loved the feel of the city, and I even registered for The Draft while there. We swung a gig running a hospitality suite at the convention, so had unlimited room and drinks. And yes, we drove an old white Ford Falcon station wagon!
