(If I can get all my packing done, I might try to make some spiffy button sets to sell to first-comers.)

I’ll also be in Tompkins Sq. Park at some point playing ukulele with the incomparable Reggie Wingnutz, but as I haven’t played in months and he’s going to totally smoke me, that date and time is secret.  You could just loiter around the park and listen for something that sounds like a uke getting run over by an ice cream cart.  That would be me.

And lastly, if there are any must-see museum shows, galleries, events, the best shoe store on earth, or the most fantastic dessert you ever tasted that you think I need to check out, please do let me know.
