Yes, and that looks like the intersection of Haight and Ashbury in San Francisco during the "summer of love." Doesn't look like "love" to me! Probably a pair of runaways from another part of the country--the Haight was full of them in 1967. If that is Ashbury going uphill in the background then the Grateful Dead's house is up there on the left. The Dead actually moved out of there to Marin County before 1967s "summer of love" because the area was getting too full of newcomers and the area's artistic bohemia that the Dead preferred was almost gone by the beginning of 1967. All those runaway Boomer kids flooded in and basically "loved" the place to death.

And now back to your regularly scheduled programming.
