How Easy it is to Spend Someone Else’s Money<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Sat. May 5, 1984\u2014New York\u2014<\/strong>Zach arrived here at 9:30, Jo soon after.\u00a0 We drove to Boo\u2019s in Fairfield, left there at about 11:00, drove to Mystic, Conn. And stopped for ice cream then met J. C. at Pequot Properties at 1:30 p.m.\u00a0 She drove us to the\u00a0 house mom had liked but wasn\u2019t able to see inside. It was just as well, probably that she didn\u2019t. Somebody was home cooking hard-boiled eggs and the interior of the house was basically conducive to the odor. We drove out toward Stonington, Conn. to see the \u201cdaffodil house\u201d which was very nice, a lot like Maine, but too close to Rte. 1. Then we\u00a0 arranged to meet A. from Boyer Agency at 13 Grove Street.\u00a0 A most beautiful house which looked as if the sun had shown in it and the breezes blown in it since the day it was built\u20141863.\u00a0 I believe.\u00a0 A half block away from the water on a nice almost college quadrangle style neighborhood. We went back to Pequoit and bought it. Boo had the only\u00a0 blank check in the group and signed it over for $10,000. Our first offer of $220,000 was refused\u2014a second one for $225,000 accepted from a telephone booth en route back in Essex.<\/p>\n

We ate dinner in the Tumble Down Caf\u00e9 and went to the Griswold to await the arrival of Alice with the changes.\u00a0 Signed, sealed and delivered at the Griswold Inn at app. 9:00 p.m. Dropped Boo off in Fairfield, Jo at her car, Zach at the door and to bed.<\/p>\n

Between offers, of course, I spoke with Mom and Dad, on the basis of one phone call, at the Williamsburg Inn, not knowing exactly where they were or if they would be in.\u00a0 A good sign.\u00a0 I thought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
