In addition to the 250 plus Lyrical Pieces that I have written and received Copyright Protection from the Library Of Congress - I have, also, written a Novel (copyrighted but not Published) entitled 5500 Years From Home. I am currently working on a 2nd Book entitled The Island that I am about 1/2 the way towards completion, .. but have suspended at this time.

5500 Years From Home
In addition to the 250 plus Lyrical Pieces that I have written and received Copyright Protection from the Library Of Congress - I have, also, written a Novel (copyrighted but not Published) entitled 5500 Years From Home. I am currently working on a 2nd Book entitled The Island that I am about 1/2 the way towards completion, .. but have suspended at this time.
.
I have decided to, occasionally, post excerpts from
5500 Years From Home in this Blog space.
Today, we peruse the 11th page of Chapter 9 – Page 81.

Beatles’ Land
She was unaware that Donnie had skipped School and been at JFK Airport on Friday. Thom didn’t elaborate further. He told her that his name was Martin and he was in room 616 at the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan and that he would call back.
.
Thom then left the Hotel to sightsee around Manhattan. The earliest that he recalled ever being in the city was around 1980 when his parents took him and his brother to see the Broadway show, 42nd Street. He had certainly been back since but this was a good chance to see the attractions from an earlier circa. He lunched at an eatery and even strolled through Central Park. The Park was so clean and children were running around. Times had indeed changed.

When he returned to the Hotel around seven p.m., the Desk Clerk saw him and informed him that he had received a phone call and a subsequent message was left. Thom looked at the note to see that it was from Donnie Blasingame. Thom went to his room and returned the call. He apologized for dropping the dime on Donnie’s Airport adventure. He continued that he was a businessman in town by himself and had won two tickets to the Ed Sullivan Show, the next night. He said that if Donnie wanted one of the tickets, he could meet him at Studio 51 on west 53rd Street on Sunday night before the televised program began and Thom would return the Student voucher.

Donnie was elated and agreed, immediately. This was an earlier, safer time for youths and Donnie nor his family saw any problem with the arrangement. Especially at a place with so many other patrons around. Donnie’s mother and father would drop him off at the TV studio at 6:30 p.m. and have Dinner at a nearby Restaurant and be waiting for him when the show ended around 9:00-9:30. The remarkable thing about this was that Donnie had run into an old family friend at JFK Airport that Friday and was going to drive with him to his home in Washington, D.C. and see the Beatles, there, too.
