5 Things: Red Hook Jazz and Living Without the R
Plan your weekend and get up to speed with what's going on around town.
1. I am in trouble with Minneapolis: The larger half of the Twin Cities is a bit irate with Carroll Gardens Patch after I took umbrage with NYC's second place finish in the recent Trust for Public Land ParkScore challenge.
2. Get some "new to you" duds at the kids clothing swap: ArtsCetera in Cobble Hill is hosting its Spring Kids Clothing Swap on June 8 and 9, with a suggested entry donation of $10.
3. Jazz it up: Take a trip on Sunday, June 9 to the Red Hook Jazz Festival. You can't have more fun than that, I promise you.
4. Start Making Plans To Live Without the R train: In August, the tunnel between Brooklyn and Manhattan will close for 14 months. Don't say we didn't warn you.
5. Move that rig: Alternate Side Parking rules are active Friday. You don't get a day off until July 4.
