Thanks so much for your call back just now Dr Sargent 10/10/23  

  

Dear Ma, Alden, John, Ed, Pin, All, 

Greetings! 

Hello my wonderful mother, from almost northwest Connecticut. Departed Dartmouth Massachusetts near New Bedford MA  after doing laundry & a great shower at the  Padanaram bridge around noon ... Am heading to Lakeville CT in Salisbury CT next ... but Silent Meadow Farm to explore, where Alden Briscoe grew up doesn't come up in Google Search or Maps, - and I don't know the Briscoe's Lake House's address to be able to visit it either. Just crossed over the Expansive and Interesting 'Saville Dam and Barkhamsted Reservoir' - a water source - with abundant forests around (and its no overnight camping signs too) and then came to the East River bridge over Rt 318 ... and there's a great open dirt parking area for fishermen too which could be perfect for overnight camping, situated with forests and rises of land around to be sheltered, and from the traffic and car headlights. I'm taking the slow route west to the SF Bay Area, so although a bit early, and since it is dusk, I may overnight here in my warm vehicle (with even the engine on, if necessary, - but not yet at 55F) ... and see if I can find what was the road into Silent Meadows Farm in Lakeville in the morning, exploring, as well as the road in to the Briscoe's former I think Lakehouse - both of which we visited quite a lot when I and Sandy were growing up, sometimes to or fro Cuttyhunk ... Stay tuned ... Seeking to arrive in the SF Bay Area around 11/1/23, it being 10/13/23 ... and possibly getting a house there for a song ... path unclear ahead ... Did you say three nights ago when I called you from between the 2 lagoons in Dartmouth MA ... that you were inviting me to stay for 3 or 4 or a fortnight? - in your sunroom on my two comfortable camping pads & re your spare 2nd bathroom too? You're really good with logistics and planning ... and it might be good to lay out some further steps in coming into a house for a song together with this up upcoming move ... (I don't think Donna's and my 'lovemaps' are reciprocal (http://scottmacleod.com/JohnMoneyLovemaps.html) ... but who knows? Sending love, abolition-ally, greetings from the road, ❤️, Scott (http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/John%20Money%20PhD)


Alden, what please are the addresses for the -

1) Silent Meadows Farm in Lakeville as well as your former? 2) Lakehouse's addresses -

- just so I can check them out from the road please,? I say a Higley St sign a few miles back 
... and wondered if it was referring to your mother, and my GREAT Aunt Marf's adoptive father ...

John, thanks again for your call back to me on Tuesday when I was on Harvard Avenue in Brookline MA! 

Ed, and Pin, what does my moving Forward into a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Rd Canyon 94516 look like from your perspectives at this point? 


Fond regards, abolitionally, greetings from the road, Scott 




Dear Alden, Ma (Janie), John, Ed, Pin, All, 

Greetings from Lakeville, CT, near where Alden grew up, I think. Just reporting that I found your Lakehouse driveway, Alden, and that the 2 Briscoe 81 (street number) signs are still standing with the same long straight driveway not bent yet :) ... Briscoe, Lakehouse, 81 Interlaken Rd, Lakeville, CT ... But am seeking a GOOGLE MAPS with TIME SLIDER ... so I can search for Silent Meadow Farm in a historical sense (different from a Google Street View with time slider, as emerging real virtual reality ... and see set of Tweets below in these regards, and re a #Realistic Virtual Earth for History ... and Brown University and the 1960s and '70s too) BUT, sitting in the Interlaken conference center parking lot across the road from Briscoe's 81 Interlaken Rd ... your neighbors just walked past into the Interlaken Inn ... and I got out of the car ... and they gave me directions to the Briscoe's farm ... on Red Mountain Road ... Voila ! :) 

Ma, might I spend 3 or 4 nights, or a fortnight chez toi, and to sort things out further, (and per John Sargent MD's call to me last Tuesday) please ... and possibly beginning tomorrow, Sunday, Oct 15, 2023?

Ed, Pin, in What ways can the US federal and stare of CA governments become my allies in my potentially moving WUaS Academic Medical Center into a newly safe open 670 Ridgecrest Road, Canyon 94516 ... if state and federal law were to move t wylie into a secure retirement facility, and the FBI were to help navigate the possibility heinous criminality networks' fallout, eg by 'Canyon critters' or Canyon CA criminals - re knowing that Canyon is become safe (per John again)?

Camped out by the Farmington river where the Hwy 318 bridge crosses over it ... probably an old road (where are the WUaS robot archeologists for projects in the future?) 

Some of us are from Connecticut in this email thread - Alden, and myself my mother to some degree, having lived in Hamden CT from 1966-72, next to New Haven, CT. My father was on the Yale faculty - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_K._MacLeod. Brilliant Lacanian psychiatrist George Alexander MD again: George was a Yale alum, so from CT too in a sense. What often impressed me with George and the Alexanders were how very conscious they were - at dinner parties even for ex. They seemed to think intentionally (an aspect of consciousness philosophically) about what happens in social settings, and anticipate individuals' behavior (like my father's and create or fabricate social situations too - and use language brilliantly - with such conscious awareness, shared in language). 

Planning for moving the WUaS Academic Medical Center forward into Canyon 94516 on Nov 1, 2023 consciously  ... consciousness-wise ? How best further to do so? 


CT culture at the dirt 'sandbox' fishing area at Farmington River and 318 bridge ... - glimpses - low male voices of 2 fisherman, then one person dressed in shady side academy clothes, no jeans, but collared shirt no tennis shoes, ...  then raised male voices later by a pick up truck in another part of the lot - possibly African Americans hanging out ?Two of the fisherman were dressed to the 9s in fishing duds / clothes ... one with a fishing rod even, although the fish weren't rising another said .. and then this morning a 4 wheeler SUV came into the dirt parking area ...and seemed to drive through a puddle and then as it headed back out onto the road, stopped briefly, got out of the car ... and then moved in ... I think where I camped last night (45F weather, even a little cold with two sleeping bags) is a local 'sandbox' even as 'social psychology' experiments in a way :)


Further thinking legal languages about MacLeod Cuttyhunk house 3 way ownership questions - 
my mother is 'Grantor' - which is new legal lingo I learned 
re Cuttyhunk house 
A gran-tor 
A granny-gate? :) 

I'm looking, Ma, for a life partner (and who likes me :))

(... and re my contacting Attorney Hodgson too) ... 


More later ... 

Fondly, abolition-ally, best wishes, thanks, Scott

Retweeting 

Janis Joplin joined the Grateful Dead at Fillmore West on this day in 1969. Janis performed a powerful 20-minute “Lovelight” alongside her friend Pigpen. 
Here’s a photograph of Pigpen N Janis  outside of Ashbury in 1967 by Ronald Rakow. #hippies #nftcommunity #solana
