DayBooks: 28 May 74 - Tuesday - 12:30 p.m. - N.Y.C. Port Authority

Sitting on a Greyhound back to Rochester - little time to write before bus starts - Mac & Stu met me Friday night, then George, his wife, and daughter (!), Diane and HoJo (so big, such a little bastard) - Stu and I talked all night - Sam, Mike and Patty - my father (!!!) in N.Y.C. for Ellington's funeral - Bob Freund and his fiance - got my strobe, and a 28mm Nikkor from Mac for $100 and my 35mm Vivitar - Sam got the Ascor for $100 less than M&F (a part missing, to follow later). Strange dream last night, woke up and cried - went to the roof to watch a sunrise - Stu, Sam and me bar-hopping as "Hawkeye, Trapper John, and Radar" - the dream so real, and I understood the symbols, the message, but not the conclusion - deja vu at the O-club, and later before leaving.

Why didn't I bring Chic? - Sam will be up July 4th - Bob F. marries on 3 Aug - gathering in Conn. at George's the end of August (bring your own sleeping bag).

Mac's grandmother died, his parents stopped on their way to Philadelphia for the funeral - thought of Marvin, his son and grandchildren coming from Israel next week.

The bus pulls out - more later - I could sleep for a week.
