Let's keep all good thoughts for the same kind of excellent weather that we are enjoying today for all the days the Garden is open.  That means it can rain on Mondays and Tuesdays only.  

I hope to see you there, rain or shine, as we do have indoor seating as well.  But let's keep the good weather thoughts going.
