Hoa and Anselm will read. If it rains or is too cold, people will go inside, but otherwise, people will drink and BBQ in the yard. This will be a great time if you have an office job and want something to do on a Friday night!

To get to my house, which is about three blocks from the Brooklyn Museum: 2/3 to Grand Army Plaza; B/Q to 7th Ave; 4/5 to Franklin. Subways should run better on a Friday than they usually do on the weekends.
