Bye da tine we got to Woodstock by Yorn Frend Jed Bye da tine Bud Fox and I gots ta Woodstock da concert had been long ovar. It was Bud's idea fur us ta goes dar. He wanted ta nos two tings, whut he had misted bye givun 3 years ta Uncles Sam and why did dat hippy woman spit on him wen he was goins home in u-nee-form. He had been workins helpins Veterans in da VA Hospital on da si-chol-O-gy ward n goins to College. Bud was da shrinks C-cret weapons. Wen a guy woods say U donts know whuts its lik, dey woods say we woods lik ya ta talks ta dis guy, he is yorn age and he was a medic. Dey woods tell Bud tings dey woods nevvar tell a guy who was a old shrink. Mostlees Bud wood just lissun den talks wid the shrinks n make plans bout whut may B good ta talks bout nex tine. Well dis is just meye o-pinyun buts I tinks Bud gavs so much he leffs noting 4 himselfs. So one day he walks into da head shrink n sez "Thank you for all you have done for me and for helping my education in Psych but it is time for me to go." "Where will you go Bud?" "I'm going to go answer some question I have, try to find someone I lost. Then I'm going to college full time, Thank you again." Wid dat Bud jus walked away. Da nex ting I nos wez in a little cabun on Jessup Rd. in Willow N.Y. Jus a few miles frum the beauDful town of Woodstock. Bud likd beins alone, outs in da woods so Jessup Rd was a good place bac den. Woodstock da town was a place 4 hippies n 4 peoples frum Nue York Cit-T ta comes 2 ifn day wanted 2 see a hippy. Woodstock had a nice Village Green (grass lawn spot in the middle of town where hippies hung out), close by was "head shops" (dey didnts sell heads dar but if you was a head ya could buy papers, pipes, pea-cocks feathurs, in sense, stash boxes, yorn standard hippy tings, tings liks dat). The concert "Woodstock" did nots happun in Woodstock in case U donts nos. Woodstock is an artist town, always has been, and Jed is talkin in all mediums. Bud wanted to anssir queshtions an he nue dis was da place ta do it. Bud let his hair n beard grows, ta fits in. Bud had sum fresh scars on his face but he lied wens asted whut happuned ta him. Bud didnt wants ta talks bout da Army so "car accident" was his anssir 4 manE years. Whut was it that Bud was lookin 4? Anssirs, persunal peace, to B more lik he used to B, n 4 him ta mets sum1 who chood helps him. Den 1 hippy gurl told Bud sumting dat stuck in his head. She said hes was beauDful, inside, n dat dats whair beauD counts, she den kissed him on his scars. On his face, nose and his eye. She nue whair da scars had cum frum, she wuz one ofs da few in da worlds dat did. Den she says Bud had "persunal power." Now fur U peoples dat werent around bacs den or misted it, U may nots nos whuts she was talkin bout but, Bud did. She told Bud dat he had bad dreams n kickd her in his sleep but she said she didnt mind. She woods wakes Bud frum dreams, well nightsmares n sez "Talk to me, you have to talk about it" n Bud woods say I cants. N he woods just B silunts sumtines n drinks alone a lot. I wuz concernd fur him 4 a while. N-nee-way she helpd Bud anssir sum queshtions. N she was da first persun besides me dat Bud had let get close to him in yars. Dar was a hippie sayin bac den dat went sumting liks "if you love something, let it go, if it comes back to you it is yours, if it doesn't then it never really was" Bud loved dat hippy gurl n den he let her go, n she did came bac but, Bud was gone.
