Here's one for the kids; take them ax throwing.  Kick Axe is nearby in hip Brooklyn, super safe, each group has a range with fences and their own range officer. Make reservations. Dinosaur BBQ is 2 blocks away, good eats. Both places are on the web.

This has jogged my memory about a guy that used to post on here ages ago, who owned a nice upscale restaurant in NYC. He had a matched pair of doubles built by a maker called White, I believe?..................English, or Scottish? Peter White, maybe? Too long ago, I cannot remember the maker's name exactly.
Does anyone remember him besides me, and if he is still in the restaurant business?
SRH Stan, I think you may be referring to Wayne Nish. He had a pair of boxlocks built by T.R. White. I don't know when he stopped posting, but it has probably been 10 plus years. Ken

Not so off topic Stan. Dinner at the March might have been a treat for Lloyd and his family. < https://www.nytimes.com/2004/07/30/arts/diner-s-journal.html>

I have been doing a little research on Wayne, and it seems he has been a busy boy. He has opened several new restaurants since being an active member here, and the last (I think) is an upscale hamburger place in Soho.
Google him ...........interesting reading.

Go to Peter Lugar for steak and a martini. Kids love old dark expensive restaurants! Don't forget to take a grand in cash to Bklyn, PL doesn't take credit cards. Sheesh. Take 'em to the Village, walk around Washington Square and NYU. Go to the World Trade Center memorial. The Metropolitan Museum and/or Modern Art. Bring comfy shoes, if the weather's good NYC is a walking town, 5th and 6th Avenues in midtown are amazing, St Patricks is on 5th. +1 on the Oyster Bar, and Grand Central is worth the trip. Don't go to the top of the Empire State Building, the wait in security lines can be more than an hour.
