I was definitely seeing this coming, though it took place a little earlier than I expected….But that makes Grandma about the age I surmised, since that road trip with the Merry Pranksters happened in 1964 or 65, and she was probably in her mid 20’s. They weren’t teenagers on that bus… Kesey was 30-ish.So… Agnes’ mother (or possibly father) would have been born in ‘65 or ’66….(and Grandma was apparently still a rocker 10 years later)We still have to figure that nobody has aged much in the dozen years since this strip began in 2002:Agnes about 10, missing parent about 37, Grandma in her early 60’s.. What does amaze me is that, after all these years of church, restraint, and enforced propriety, and what I thought of as trying to lead her granddaughter in a safer direction, Grandma is suddenly telling Agnes about it!
