Usually after a case was decided, the jurors would have lunch or dinner together at the Stratton Restaurant on Queens Blvd. As a child, I loved going to the park to ride the beautiful carousel there. Many great delis in the area- loved the pickles ! Was your parents’condo located near Union Tpke in a high rise building that seemed to be located in or very near the park? This building wasn’t far from Woodhaven Blvd. I remember getting several hours for lunch so I grabbed a taxi and went to aqueduct to catch a few horse races while on jury duty. Carousel was walking distance to my parents condo. 11 minutes ago, lenquixote66 said: I knew people who lived in a condo on Woodhaven close to Myrtle from 1965 to 1975.It was across the street from the park. my parents lived there from early 1970’s moved to Denver mid 1990’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJSailors Posted January 24, 2022 #45403 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Lenny- I think your friends’ condo is the high rise building thatI am thinking of in my post . A few blocks south of that building was a small playground that friends and I would go to with one of our parents to watch over us. There were metal swings, monkey bars and see saws. Nothing fancy, but’s we loved playing there! Very rustic compared to playground equipment these days. George- Great idea to go to Aqueduct. I hope you picked some winners! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I walked out of two both fairly recently, South Pacific and another one with Jim Parson “ the normal heat” in both cases , it was due to absolutely no leg room for my bad knees , for a couple other plays I stood in the back for the second act. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the older theaters in NYC provide very little leg room. We made sure we reserved an aisle seat at the end of the row where Jim could move his bad knee at the last Play we saw. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OB I believe the mask requirement was an issue for you. What are your thoughts on it now that you’re aboard? And I’m not asking about those following or not following, etc. I’m just curious if you feel it’s impacting your own enjoyment of the cruise.
