Challenge Title: Summer of 1968

Hostess: Jeanette (Forest Ranger)

Keyword: JUN20VSNK

Date: Saturday, June 27; 4pm EST


Challenge: I used a Random Number Generator to choose a number between 1920 and 2020. The number generated was 1968 so for this challenge you will need to do some research (Google is your friend) and find out what songs were popular in the summer of 1968. Choose one of those songs as inspiration for your card.





When posting your card, please share with us what song you chose, too... so we can sing along.





Stumped on how to find a song? Google isn't cooperating for you??? HERE is a link that might help.
