Yes, Thursday still works well for me, and the earlier start would actually help because I need to be back before dusk.
If you are bringing the folding chairs, I can handle the table covers and that extra thermos you mentioned.
For food, I think keeping it simple makes the afternoon easier. We could do sandwiches, sliced fruit, and those baked chips everyone finishes first.
If Mara joins us, ask whether she still prefers sparkling water with lemon, because I remember she skipped the juice last time.
On the park question, the south entrance is the easiest if you are carrying supplies. The path near the tennis courts is flatter and closer to the shaded benches.
I also think bringing one small speaker is enough, since we mainly want to talk and catch up without turning it into an event.
If weather shifts, we can move to my porch and continue at the same time without changing anything else.

I looked over your suggestions for Saturday, and I think starting with the garden center makes the most sense because it will be quieter in the morning.
After that, we can head to the hardware shop nearby and compare paint swatches in person instead of guessing from photos.
About lunch, I am good with the café near the corner bookstore, especially if they still have the rosemary soup and the toasted rye sandwiches.
You asked whether we should invite Lena too, and I think yes, mainly because she has a great eye for shelves and small layout changes.
If timing gets tight, we can easily skip the antiques stop and loop back another weekend, since that one requires more wandering than the others.
For clothes, wear something you do not mind brushing against dusty boxes, because those garden aisles seem to scatter soil everywhere.
Also, if you still have the measuring tape in your tote, bring it along so we can double-check width before choosing the planter stand.
