A Quick Saturday Recommendation

I had one of those 'perfect storm' weeks where too much happens to get on and blog. But I'm back, baby, and I'd like to make it up to you.

First, this Saturday is free-for-all at the RISD Museum, so it's a good time to go check out some great art in a great space. It's a great day for kids, too: the Puppet People will put on their rendition of the Legend of Sleepy Hollow. It's free, 11-4, and the museum is 224 Benefit Street in Providence. (But of course, you knew that.)

I was going to recommend the Olneyville Fall Festival, too, but the weather makes it a little less appealing. If you're willing to brave the rain, it's at Donigan Park on Valley Street, Providence. There will be children’s activities, canoe rides, rock climbing, pumpkin painting, and more goodness. No word on whether they'll cancel due to inclement weather, though the rock climbing might be perilous.

Finally, there's a Waterfire tonight; last of the year. And while I'll be watching the Red Sox, I will say that Waterfire on a drizzly night in the fall is a much different, and maybe even better, experience than it is on a packed summer night.

I'll try to get back later today with another review of a good place to watch the Sox in the Series, and some other stuff.
