“As of this weekend I’m not allowed into one neighborhood.”
Did they revoke your passport? : P
Ah, ok, sorry, I thought you couldn’t swim.
The Y is on the North side of Atlantic, between Court & Boerum Place/Adams.
” As of this weekend I’m not allowed into one neighborhood.”
Oookay, that sounds WEIRD!
Hey Biff!
Since you like Stephen King’s “The Stand†(my favorite of his books, and one of my all-time favorite books), you will love the opening scene to the mini-series, particularly with Blue Oyster Cult’s “Don’t Fear the Reaper†playing in the background. That said, I think my rendition of “Don’t Fear the Reaper” is better, but time will tell whether BOC or I sell more concert tix!

Cobble, I took classes at NYU many years ago. That’s where I learned to swim. And I took a class at a local high shcool last year just to get a refresher. I know how to swim, I just have trouble turning to get air and treading water. I actually know several strokes.
“Take lessons at the Y, Expert, the new-ish one on Atlantic/Court has a nice pool.”
Which side of Atlantic is it on? As of this weekend I’m not allowed into one neighborhood.
DeLepp,
I love the Jackie Robinson Parkway too–my favorite shortcut. I get on at Bushwick Ave. I love taking it to the Trader Joe’s on Metropolitan Ave.–with a parking lot!
However, if there is an accident, and there are MANY accidents as there are many many many maniac drivers who use it, plan on enjoying the scenery for a while!
