Parking:
There is a limited quantity of 2 hour parking in St. Marys Park proper.  However, the neighborhood parking permit restriction opens back up starting at 5:30, so by starting at 6 pm you should be able to park on the street (and not be competing with employees for spots) for the duration of our explorations.

Is anyone interested or knowledgeable in chatGPT, I haven't had time to look into it enough for a demo, but I have looked into Dalle2 enough to present a short demo.
