Picnics: where alcohol, a grill and the dog are actually legal

Verified East End picnic grounds — public parks, state and county parks, preserves, beach-grass strips, winery lawns and historic gardens — with the rule that decides whether the plan is legal. Call this for any picnic, blanket, park, park-hours, barbecue or fire-pit question, and ALWAYS before saying anyone can drink outdoors: the alcohol rule is set by whoever owns the grass (New York State, Suffolk County, a town, a village, a winery) and splits roughly a third prohibited, a third bring-your-own, a third wine-only-or-permit-only. Answering that from memory is the classic confident wrong answer, and it costs the asker a village summons rather than a bad meal. alcohol is a sentence to quote, not a boolean: wine-only is a winery lawn where the estate's wine is fine and your bottle is not, and allowed-with-permit means not allowed until the permit in permitUrl is in hand. glassBottles: prohibited holds even where alcohol is allowed. fireOrGrill and dogs are per-spot. 15 of these publish hours as "Sunrise to sunset" or "Dawn to dusk", so closesAt is resolved from THAT spot's own coordinates for today — "8:09 PM (sunset)" is tonight's sunset there, which is not something you can know. Where only hoursText comes back the published line was not machine-readable: quote it, do not turn it into a claim about right now. Pass allows to filter to what the picnic needs. The guide holds NO drinking rule for the ocean beaches — those are beach_info's, which carries dogs and permits but not alcohol — so never infer one from these. Returns up to 8.
