Time to plan for the weekend! Not sure what to do? Here are some suggestions:
GET TICKETS to Spamalot, Monty Python's lusty skewering of the King Arthur legends, now entering its final weekend at the Spring Lake Theatre Company, 300 Madison Avenue, Spring Lake. Dates are May 21, 22, and 23. For information or reservations, call the box office at 732-449-4530.
TAKE a walk.
TAKE a hike.
TAKE PICTURES!!! May is National Photography Month. Whatever you do, wherever you are, even if you're in the parlor, get out the camera. If you take pictures at one of the Monmouth County parks, you can even see if the county will include one of them in a photography exhibition at Deep Cut Gardens or the Manasquan Reservoir. Details and entry forms are here. Good luck!
PREPARE for hurricane season, which starts Tuesday, June 1. Not sure where to begin? The National Weather Service has a site devoted to the topic here.
