is Nederland Colorado still a dreadlock mecca???

i lived between nederland and rollinsville about 10 yrs ago (a short drive from boulder)

back the it seemed like everyone had dreads.

anyone around there these days?...is it still like that?....any other areas of the US where there is a large population of dreads?

i live in evergreen colorado now....cool ass place, not many dreads, most pple here are rich and uppity.

Havent been there for about 4 years but i saw quite a few walking around, met a few. I love that mountain town.

I was up there not this past summer, but the one before, cruisin around colorado and ended up in nederland for a bit. I didn't see any dreadies, but the hippy-vibe'sdefinitelythere. Another cool hippy town around there is ward. An older lady told me about it, as the last hippy stronghold and when I cruised through saw a bunch of broken down painted dusty old hippy buses lining one side of the street. such a beautiful part of the country. especially coming from flat crappy south texas-wish i was in Co.

i figured that it prolly hasn't changed much....i love that town too!!

when i lived there we rented a tiny ass cabin/A-frame w/ no running water, no electric (had generator tho)...and actually had a phone line....i only ever used the generator to power our old ass desktop to get on-line thru dial-up...talk about old-school.

rent was like 275/month

years after we moved we met ended up meeting several ppl on dif occasions that lived in the same place (all had dreads..lol) ppl called the place "hansel and gretals" ...and called the landlord "ned flanders"...all very accurate descriptions.

there was also a cabin/house on the way back where a bunch of rastas lived...we'll more like were always hanging out on their porch.....and like 15 to 20 of 'em.....never saw them anywhere else tho.

we drove thru last year...but it was the same day as "reggae on the rocks" at red rocks ...the town was dead....we came from the backside, and coming out towards boulder there was nedfest going on....(so i figure that's where everyone was)....it was already a long day, so we didn't stop, but prolly should have.
