1. Bus driver, bus driver. Show us the parks! From 1 to 3 p. m. Sunday, climb aboard for a tour of Buffalo’s Olmsted Parks system, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Meet at the Parkside Lodge in Delaware Park. Cost: $25 for adults; $20, students, seniors, youths. Call 838-1249, Ext. 17, to register.
2. Talk about twists and turns. Join Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, Morgan Le Fey and the rest of the Camelot gang Saturday in Lockport, when “KingArthur’sQuest” takes the stage of Lockport High School, 250 Lincoln Ave. Presented at 3 and 7 p. m. by the Kenan Center with
the Missoula Children’s Theatre, the production also features a cast of local children. All seats $6. Call 433-2617 to save your seat.
3. Mums, anyone? Go directly to the Botanical Gardens, 2655 South Park Ave., for a floral display that will take your breath away. The annual Chrysanthemum Show runs Saturday through Nov. 8. Hours: 10 a. m. to 5 p. m. Go Sunday and get in free! Otherwise, adults $5; children ages 6 to 13, $3.
»Delaware Park is a peaceful place to visit in the fall.
4. The family that drives together stays together, so start your engines now.
The Discover America Road Rally—105 miles through the Southern Tier —sets off from Brunner’s Eatery, 7171 Boston State Road, North Boston, at noon Sunday. Registration ($45) opens at 9:30 a. m. See some spectacular foliage while you’re at it. Rally ends in Holland with roast beef dinner (two per registration).
