The AA Statesman reported today that a party barge flipped over and sank as it was passing by Hippie Hollow....it says that all the occupants of the barge moved to one side of the barge causing an uneven distribution of weight which caused it to flip and sink. Everyone is accounted for and all are ok...only a few minor injuries. All that for a peek and the show on Hippie Hollow. :doh:

That story is also on the front page of CNN's web page!! I wish I would have seen that happen in person!! After confirming that everyone was OK I think I would have started cracking up!!

Do they still call it "Hippie Hollow" ? I would have thought it would be called something else by now. Peace!
