AND SUMMER BEGINS FOR BROOKLYN GIRL AND THE HUBS

We head out to our first beach trip of the summer season of 2012 and we decide to go to our fav CONEY ISLAND. The Hubs and I venture out to what we call the quiet side and we were so glad to see that it was nice,calm inviting and quiet.

Next Week we go to the rides and see the fireworks; how can you not love BROOKLYN. HAVE A GREAT AND SAFE SUMMER

MARTY IS LOOKING TO MOVE

Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz was catching a lot of summertime heat last summer for his Seaside Summer Concert series at Asser Levy Park. Complaints of noise codes and the use of cheap labor Rikers inmates had the locals not in a concert celebrative mood.

Well it turns out that the Concerts are being moved to the Coney Island section of West 21st Street parking lot that Ringling Bros. has used in the past. This might turn out to be an expensive move but the Asser Levy Park neighbors will celebrate with "quiet" space.

Coney Island is ready for the new season of 2011

Yes, it is that time of the year again and Coney Island opens with three new SCREAMING RIDES. Mayor Bloomberg, Marty Markowitz and other dignitaries offically open up Coney Island with the SCREAM ZONE. Can somebody scream AAAAaaaaaaa!

See ya at Coney.

Luna Park Coney Island 2010

These are just a few of the great shots taken by my friend Frankie Nieves on the Grand Opening Day of Luna Park CI. Everyone is so excited and I look forward to bringing my own pics to the Blog soon ;I'll be bringing my grandsons with me when I go. I love the way they gave honor to the Original Luna Park of days gone by. I don't remember Luna Park but I do remember Steeple Chase park when I was very young and the Parachute structure still stands to this day which was a part of the Steeple Chase park.
Well,I am wishing everyone the best Summer filled with fun,joy, laughter and safety.
I'll be bck soon with more pics till then, can everyone say Weeeeeee and Whoo Hooo.
