I am an older senior citizen, never carried nor used a gun nor spray.

Last night, I could not sleep. 3 AM, middle of night  I got up and went out. I live in a  very heavy populated area, of the city, large residential high floors building,  nearly middle of city.

I went to a supermarket 4 blocks away, bought a couple things. 

On way back stopped, at a sandwich shop that also, stays open all night.

 I  got a toasted bagel, and coffee.

 

68 degrees comfortable 

Then stopped at very small vest park area,across from my building, had the bagel and coffee.

Saw others on sidewalk, no one I knew. In the day usually see someone I know, like a small town. 

I usually do this a couple times a year, Sar night or week days.

 

I was shaking in my boots, at least I was not killed. It must have been a dream, but I looked on table where I found the supermarket receipt.

 

I hope I am not tired  when I play tennis in Central Park today. It would effect my game.

NFL football watching later today.

I grew up in the Bronx and didn't know it was dangerous until I found out how others lived.

Dex, right a few more good trades and I will be able to  hire 2 full time guards, and a nice young sexy blonde girl, who will be the scout, looking out for trouble.

10,000 restaurants  add outdoor areas after city loosened regualtions for outdoors al fresco.

 

78 degrees  and sunny today, feels great

 

all  busy, and have seperators, throw a way menus and many other virus protectioons

 

Mayor just announced  they will be able to stay open in winter, if they meet requriements for safe heaters etc.You cannot imagine how many strict  regualtions for everything.

Many, many bike riders today private and rentals on all streets, walkers, rummers etc.

 

 

Very dangerous.

I hope that  all the  rapists, murderers, and robbers take off today, on this day of rest.

Dex -MY wife and I are meeting friends at City Island., to eat seafood outdoors. It is such a great area  of the Bronx, near water that they made a movie years ago called City Isand. They also used  a scene at Orchard Beach right near there, in the movie Raging Bull-.Dinaro played  Jake LaMotta. Our friends live in the Bronx.

 

I am sure you know City Island..
