I used the bathroom at CVS.  I then drove further downtown, and I left a message with a relative with my wireless phone.  I then walked the entire length of Greenwich Avenue and the train station area.  The reason I keep an eye on the railroad is that Granddad Clarence Scott worked for 60 years on the Illinois Central Railroad, so I might occasionally see some deja vue friends around the train station.  I stopped by Starbucks, and I used the bathroom, and I chatted with a regular.  I tend to talk faster in the winter, because it is a bit cold outside.  I then went by CVS, and I bought another 27.8 ounce Folgers Special Roast coffee for $6.99.  They are $10 off this week.  I then finished my walk.  On the way down Greenwich Avenue, I chatted with three locals about Mountain Lions.  I sat out for a while, and I watched Starbucks close.  I then went by the Stop and Shop, and I bought four fresh muffins for $2.99, a 96 ounce container of Tropicana orange juice with calcium for $3.99 and two bananas for .79 a pound for .62 for $7.60 total.  I then returned home, and I put away my purchases.  Once I used up the opened 33 ounce Eight O'clock hazelnut coffee beans, I will save the two new closed bags and start using the Folgers's Special Roast coffee.  It says on the container it will make up to 240 cups, but the way I make coffee, it will probably make about 50 cups.  When I returned to Nantucket in the summer of 1975, I used to take naps in the Quaker cemetery by Benjamin Franklin's mother's grave whose last name was Folger.  In the summers of 1977 and 1978, I worked at the Gordon Folger Hotel as a pot scrubber.  My picture when I was darkly tanned from Key West, Florida would be in those summer's staff group photos.  CIO

Note: <888> 12/25/11 Sunday 4:30 P.M.  I woke up at 10:30 A.M., when a relative called to wish me Merry Christmas.  I finally woke up at 1:30 P.M..  I ate breakfast of oatmeal with honey and a sliced banana and milk, a toasted English muffin with Smart Balance spread, a 50% to 50% glass of punch and cold filtered water with vitamins and supplements, a cup of coffee with Equal sweetener and milk.  I washed the breakfast dishes.  I made my bed.  While eating breakfast, I watched www.foxnews.com .  They had the www.trump.com family on their show.  It reminded me that when I came off Nantucket in December 1983, I toured Manhattan a few times.  One time I was at a pub in Greenwich Village, and a friend who had gone to www.princeton.edu told me that Donald Trump had built a new building next to Tiffany's, and they had Beefeaters with fur hats standing in front of the building.  I went uptown, and I toured the seven story atrium.  I remember riding the escalators gave me vertigo.  Also they had lots of crystals that looked like large diamond spread around the open areas, and I wandered if they might be real diamonds.  However, around Christmas Time in 1977, when I was working as a dishwasher in Boca Raton, Florida at La Vielle Maison restaurant, I took time off, and I sat down with an IBM employee at a coffee shop on U.S. 1 in Boca Raton, and I designed on a napkin a desktop computer based on what I knew about an IBM 360, but the parts were not yet invented, but the desktop computer is still basically the same today.  I also bought a new pair of Addidas sneakers that Christmas, and I buried the old pair in a canal off the Boca Inlet.  Where I camped out on the north side of the Boca inlet on the beach is suppose to be a very nice hotel.

After breakfast I used duct tape to tape up the left side of the sheet over the bedroom window which was coming down.  I opened up the olive green throw that I received from the Men's United Way of Greenwich.  I also opened up the order with tracking of UPS: Tracking Information on the order for two pairs in waist 48 inches and 31 inch inseam for $19.98 each in white Colorfast Casual Corduroy Plain Front Pants and $8.95 shipping for $48.91 total.  They are a little large, but they will probably shrink to size when they are washed and dried the first time.  I removed the tags, and I hung them up on the right side of the bedroom closet.  I also got a number of other Christmas items, which I have set up around the apartment in the last couple of months.

When I was driving up Mason Street last night, I noticed there is a large Christmas Tree with colorful lights in the BNY Mellon | Asset Management and Securities Servicing  parking lot next to Pickwick Plaza.

I will now shower and clean up and put foot fungus cream on my feet and go out to downtown Greenwich Avenue for a Christmas walk.  CIO

Well, I have to figure out something more to blog about in my notes.  I could tell stories about wandering around Florida in my youth or living in isolation in Nantucket, but a lot of my adventures revolved around ordinary routines, although they were different from here.  In Florida in the fall of 1976 until April 1977 and from October 1977 until May 1978, when I did not have a home, I did a lot of camping out on the road so to speak.  Actually in the fall of 1976, I had a 1966 Chevrolet Biscayne blue four door sedan, so I was able to sleep in my car in various rest areas around Fort Lauderdale, Florida, until they towed my car for too many parking tickets at the park next to the Swimming Hall of Fame.  After my car was towed, I tried sleeping in the park at the south end of the beach in Fort Lauderdale, but I worried about alligators coming out of the canals at night.  I then hitch hiked down to Key West, Florida, where I slept underneath the community room of the Episcopal Church, until about February 1977, when Jim Eldert showed up, and he had friends with a trailer next to the Boca Chica Naval Station.  Jim Eldert's family owned the bank in Syracuse, New York, and his grandfather had the house in Key Biscayne, Florida next to Richard Nixon.  He had a lot of cousins with the last name "Moran".  His maternal grandmother was from the Joy family in Boston that started the China trade, and there are Joy family monuments in Nantucket.  As of this year, the Joy family trust is suppose to be close to a trillion dollars.  I think I also slept on the beach in the day time, and stayed awake all night.  It was sort of a dreary existence despite the nice weather.  I did not have funds to rent a room in that period, because all of my unemployment checks were delayed coming from South Carolina through Interstate Benefits in Stamford, Connecticut, and then down to Florida.  I got $87 every two weeks.  They all arrived at one time in April 1977 about $1,600 worth.  I picked up the old Chevrolet in the car pound in Fort Lauderdale after paying the parking tickets on it, and I drove north from Key West with Jim Eldert, and Jim flew north from Jacksonville, Florida, and I drove the car up north to Nantucket, where I started working odd jobs.

In Nantucket except for the summer of 1975, I usually had a place to stay.  I gave away the old Chevrolet in Nantucket, and after a season's work in October 1977, I hitchhiked back down to Florida.  I worked in "La Vielle Maison" in Baco Raton, Florida, and I camped out on the beach on the north side of the Boca Inlet.  About February 1978 I flew to the Bahamas for a few days, where I stayed with Richard Mercy in Paradise Island.  When I returned back to Florida, I went back down to Key West, Florida, where Jim Eldert showed up again.  I met John Bolton, and he had the key to the abandoned Casa Marina Hotel, where we stayed that season.  After a side trip on the Appalachian Trail in April 1978, we returned to Nantucket.  I had applied for my income tax return, so when I received it in April 1978, I used it to return back up north.  I recall around March 1978, Jim Eldert hitchhiked out of Key West, Florida, and he ended up in Santa Cruz, California I later found out. 

After the summer in Nantucket in 1978, I had bought an inexpensive Subaru Station wagon, and I drove out to California with John Bolton, and we camped out in various camp grounds along the beach and in the mountains in California. That winter we were back in Daytona, Florida at John's sister's apartment, but we did drive around south Florida and the Keys occasionally.

In February of 1982, I tried sleeping on the beach in Key West, but it was not allowed, and I did not know anyone to put me up.  In November and December of 1983 after spending the summer in Nantucket, I slept for two weeks on the couch at the Episcopal Seminary at the University of Toronto and also spent a couple of weeks living out of the East Side Airline terminal building in Manhattan.  I have been back in Greenwich, Connecticut since about mid December 1983, where I have been living inside, except for when I am sitting outside and walking around at night.  I have gotten older, so at age 61 with Mountain Lions around, I tend not to go out at night for walks in the early morning hours.  CIO
