Description
Billy is an aging San Francisco Hippy returned to his roots. He just wants to visit Haight-Ashbury, sit on its tallest hill, and try to figure out where he went wrong. A retired billionaire, Billies sold out, just like thousands if not hundreds of thousands of other aging Hippies did. The Big Question in his mind as he sits gazing at the people in the park on the hill is why? What happened to him and everyone else? Then the worst possible nightmare. A tremble and a shake. Billie jumped to his feet in alarm. All up and down Haight Ashbury, people stopped. Frozen! Then it struck. The biggest earthquake ever to hit San Francisco, or the world! Call it luck. Call it what you will, Billy is going to get a second chance to make his life work out. As he picks through the ruins of a decimated San Francisco, he begins rescuing people who were not so lucky as him. Soon, he has a following. People who depend on him for support and direction. Have they made the right choice? Will Billy make the right choice as he finds himself leading his new friends towards a distant goal, with no electricity, no gas, no running water, no vehicles to carry them. Food just scraps. And gangs out and about looting what little is left. Can Billie protect his small group, and usher them into a new future?
