An hour and a half at Peggy's home on the South Coast. We meander through many stories of life on the coast.  You will soon recognize that we of course only have time to skim off the top of many deep, consequential and memorable stories. Hopefully we'll do more some day. An hour an a half is not enough with Peggy!

Please use chapter markers above.  Some chapter names:

"Fritz Perls…smoked a lot of cigarettes, very direct!"
"Geese, garden, cheese! Back to the land!  Belly dancing! But I was a city girl!"
"Big Sur? What is that? Are artists drawn to a place like this?" 

Names and notes from the conversation: Gregory and Lois Bateson, Fritz Perls, Early Esalen…the Barn. Meskalin, Acid…sexuality, Seymour Carter, Storm, Janet Letterman, Big Sur Coast Midwifery,  John Horler, Karl Lee, Honey Rose, Bunny Gries, Stephanie Healey, Horst Meier, Tony Wagner, Arica, Lucia & Jasmine, Jack Downing Arica training, Gazebo, Brita Ostrom, Theresa Bradford, Judy Share, Linda Padilla, Candice Romanov, Melanie Lerner, Patty Villa, David Abel, violin, Richard Andersen, clarinet, Café Amphora, Doug Madsen, John Larmor, Jaime Morton, Robin and Billy, Bill Rose, Hope Rose, George Leonard, Maslov, Stanley Grof…

The controversies
The Grand meetings
The grassroots and the tree tops! 
The creation of the Big Sur Land Trust
The Coastal Act
