I just learned that famed San Francisco tattoo artist, Lyle Tuttle, passed away three months ago. He had tattooed Janice Joplin, Cher, Joan Baez, and the Allman Brothers.
In 1974 Lyle Tuttle tattooed a magic mushroom behind my right shoulder.
Years ago when we were living in the Bay Area, my daughter came out to visit. She and I walked together all up and down San Francisco where I showed her all my pre-Mommy haunts. We passed the Lyle Tuttle tattoo parlor and my daughter wanted to stop in and have a look around. Lyle Tuttle, himself, was no longer tattooing, but he owned the parlor. While there my daughter decided she wanted a magic mushroom just like Daddy's behind her right shoulder. And, so, she got one.
