Wishing you a fun filled, dry, not-too-hot event!

Thanks for the details; I am a bit too far away to visit - but I will tell family members about a nice outing to plan for.

Found Warren and wife and SIL - Fun show - Great band playing in the background - While you won't find Warren there again - you will find music and affordable art - I had a wander in IKEA afterwards and headed back to Manhattan via the Free ferry and when the M9 came before the M15 I made a stop in Trader Joe's enroute to the subway

This after taking a great bunch of High School kids around Times Square (and up to The Park) on foot!! in the morning
