Some new, some antique, some classic, some quirky. The owner/manager/employee that was on shift was super pleasant and welcoming. She engaged in conversation and made us feel welcome. The shop is kind of tucked away in a center that you wouldn't really expect to find it in. I hope they do well in the future and are able to get the word out about the store. Our house is full of fun sayings or inspirational feel good signs so we picked up another fun one we found that day. Check this place out and tell them a Yelper said hi! =)

A work in progress, the basement offers retail shops such as bookstores, disc shop, bicycle shop and a fantastic curiosity shop. There is an early era barbershop, not male exclusive, restaurants, Tataima Shabu Shabu (5 stars), and more. Unfortunately we were held captive by a quarter stealing parking meter. It ate 8 quarters and gave us time for 4. . Note to everyone, there's free parking on Center Street. The basement is a fantastic place. Just allow yourself time to relax,explore and enjoy.

Born in the 50s. Grew up in the 60s. Love, Peace and Music…read morestill works for me. Fulfilling your groovy needs since '98, Hippies is where Love, Peace and Music still rule. Hippies is a store for dreamers and their dreams. A store for life and all the joys it brings. A store for laughs. A store with memories you've memorized to keep your winters warm are. A store where all that's good gets better. A store for life. A store for love. A store for you. I've been shopping at Hippies for decades. I recently was there for Christmas present shopping because they have groovy stuff, patriotic merchandise and a Veterans and Military Discount. Merchandise selection, customer service and cleanliness was adequate. Hippies' owners like their Freedom so they have a daily Military and Veterans Discount as a token thank you to Veterans and GIs which provides resource to ensure Veterans (rare 7% of the population) and GIs (rare one-half of one-percent of the population) opportunity to participate in American Dream Veterans' and GIs' sacrifices have made possible for 100% of the population. The Hippie Movement peaked with the 1967 Summer of Love. As a Hippie myself, my Hippie friends and I read a lot, spent a lot of time learning and sharing our learning. We had container gardens over-flowing with vegetables and flowers and weed, and we brewed our own beers. Some had chickens. We became experts at salvaging and re-purposing. We traded and bartered as we had little cash. We loved classical and jazz music then invented our own blues, folk and rock music. We got around by walking, mountain bikes, our beloved VW "People's Car" buses or little put-put boats we'd salvaged. We were pro-Peace. We put on the holiday parades. We kept our word, oaths and promises. We helped out each other. We Honorably Served in America's Armed Forces where we started the Sir! No Sir! Movement, the GI movement to end the Viet Nam war https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64VULejzNhc. We then served on the Boards of Directors of various non-profits we either started or volunteered for. We were Conservationists. We were jacks-of-all-trades and masters of several. We taught at colleges and universities. How the Hippies Saved Physics https://www.hippiessavedphysics.com/. We were whimsical. We had very little debt. We gave ourselves and each other roots to grow and wings to fly. A good legacy for a bunch of bright, fun-loving and underemployed young Hippies. In the early 1980s, yuppies and their high-end Mercedes and Range Rovers and mountain of debt began to replace the Hippies. By the late 1990's there were only remnants remaining of the Hippie Culture. This Hippies store is a remnant. Another remnant is The Serial: A Year in the Life of Marin County, which I have an original copy of the book, a satirical novel by Cyra McFadden. In 1976, the book's chapters had been serialized in the Marin County alternative weekly newspaper Pacific Sun, as well as the San Francisco Chronicle. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th... The Giger Chronicles, by a different author, picks up where The Serial left off, and satirizes the rise of the yuppies in Marin County, California. scribd.com/document/5710... No complaints and no regrets I still believe in chasing dreams and placing bets But I had learn that all you give is all you get So give it all you got I had my share I drank my fill And even though I'm satisfied I'm hungry still To see what's down another road beyond the hill And do it all again So here's to life And every joy it brings So here's to life To dreamers and their dreams Funny how the time just flies How love can go from warm hellos To sad goodbyes And leave you with the memories you've memorized To keep your winters warm For there's no yes in yesterday And who knows what tomorrow brings or takes away As long as I'm still in the game I want to play For laughs for life for love So here's to life And every joy it brings Here's to life For dreamers and their dreams May all your storms be weathered And all that's good get better Here's to life Here's to love Here's to you May all your storms be weathered And all that's good get better Here's to life Here's to love Here's to you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTv3TONfTTQ . . . https://www.facebook.com/Hippiespipesandincense https://www.facebook.com/jacobinmag/videos/sir-no-sir/1943898838970141/ On this day in US history, 5 December 2006, 13 GIs were killed fighting in Iraq during the previous week.

The class size was perfect for this activity, allowing for the teacher to adequately share instructions, demonstrate the process, and work one-on-one with students as needed. The instructions were organized on a print out with all the materials and supplies needed to replicate the activity at home and referenced during the instruction portion of the class. The materials for the class were well-maintained and organized at each place setting for each student. I've taken other art classes elsewhere and I felt like this was a step above with regard to organization, instruction, and take away materials. I loved the experience so much that I'm going to take another class in October, and this time I'm bringing a friend! In addition to the art classes and studio, Copper Cat also has a delightful little art/gift shop with items made from the artists in studio. Most are in the front shop, but some pieces are scattered throughout. Take your time looking at all the wonderful pieces... so many great art gems for sale at very affordable prices. This little shop is now on my go-to for gift shopping.
