08/06/25 Wednesday 12:25 A.M.  Back in 1975 and 1977, Jimmy Eldert worked as a chamber maid at India House on India Street on Nantucket https://www.29indiahouse.com/ .  He had to carry the dirty laundry to the old laundrymat out of town, where Jimmy Buffett would practice his guitar playing.  I think around 1977, they built the Taft Laundrymat near the waterfront downtown.  I lived there for free in the fall of 1977 for painting the upstairs apartment.  I lived there with Bob Mulerin from Fairfield, Connecticut.  He later moved to Martha's Vineyard.  He was one of the Grennon's skiers from Stowe, Vermont.  I gave him my Air Force colonel's flight suit for the Strategic Air Command that I found earlier that winter around Marathon, Florida in the bushes along the road side while hitch hiking from Key West to Fort Lauderdale.  I told him to take it and go skiing at Colorado Springs, Colorado that I had already visited back in the winter of 1971, where I toured the Air Force Academy with a friend.

08/03/25 Sunday 11:35 P.M.  There is a technical problem at the Stop and Shop.  There are two long rows of grocery carts lines up in front of the Poland Spring bottles.  Thus one has to carry a 42 pound bottle of water 25 feet to a cart to move it.

Also Pope Leo was excited about getting a Chicago deep dish pizza.

For a similar product, one can try http://scott-mike.com/pizza.htm .  The pizza in Italy is like a saltine cracker with ketchup from my experience in the winter of 1972. 

08/03/25 Sunday 11:15 P.M.  On the Dell 17.3 inch laptop behind the Ethan Allen recliner, I worked on the Windows 10 partition.  Thus it is all setup for backup, if anything happens to the primary HP laptop.

08/01/25 Friday 11:30 P.M.  While driving across country, I did sleep in my car most of the time.  On the first trip in October 1978, I did stay with a relative in Chicago, another in Champaign, Illinois, and another in Tulsa, Oklahoma.  When I arrived in California, I stayed for about a week in a motel in Dana Point and towards the end of the trip around Thanksgiving Time, a motel in Laguna Beach.  On the trip that I flew round trip, I stayed a few times at the Coast Inn in Laguna Beach, the Hyatt in Maui for a week, with Vincent Butler for a few days in Santa Cruz, and a few days in a rehab place to dry out from drinking with Vincent Butler, and also for a night at Joel's in Laguna Beach.  On the last trip in the old Volvo, I did stay for a couple of nights at the Normandy Inn in Carmel, California.  In the winter of 1979 after I got back from California and Greenwich, I stayed at a friend's sister's for most of the season in Daytona Beach, Florida.  When I returned from the last trip to California in the fall of 1980, I lived at the same friend's mother's apartment on West 74th Street in Manhattan.  Earlier I had lived with his father the previous winter at Bar Beach Road in Port Washington, New York.  When I built the garage apartment for ten months, I lived at Plandome Manor, Long Island.  I also used anther top secret place which was not being used.  On the last night in California, I also stayed at Joel's in Laguna Beach, California.  Joel told me he ran Xerox Parc in Palo Alto, California.

08/01/25 Friday 10:45 P.M.  In between the seasons of 1978 and 1983, I made six round trips to California driving the $150 Subaru for four times, one and a half times flying, and the last trip in the used Volvo which I sold in California the day after election day in 1980.  I did see quite a bit of the country and the West Coast to no avail.

08/01/25 Friday 10:45 P.M.  I went outside, and I drank an instant coffee.  Out on Nantucket for the whole seasons of 1977, 1978, and 1983; I did not have many days off from pot scrubbing and dishwashing.  In the season of 1977, I made $2.15 an hour before tax, and in 1978, I made $2.85 an hour before taxes, and in 1983, I made $8.75 an hour as the head dishwasher at Le Languedoc.  Also in the season of 1978, I also worked on painting a very deluxe house on Lincoln Avenue overlooking the harbor in the daytime, before I had to go to work at Le Languedoc.  When I got a day off, I could go to the Chicken box or the Mews disco.  Sometimes, I would buy a dollar bottle of French White wine, and I would drink it at a remote location.  I also would sit on the steps of the Pacific Bank downtown, walk around the docks at the harbor, and watch the ferry boat come in.  Nobody really networked with me outside the people that I worked with.  In the season of 1977, I lived near Fred Von Mierers and Jimmy Eldert also living on India Street, but I never saw them around, since they were busy with other activities.  I did know some people at the boarding house at 31 India Street in the seasons of 1977 and 1978.  In the season of 1983, I lived in the basement of the Grennon's guest house on Hussey Street.  Thus I was always in the center of town blending in with the local color.
