The entertainment provided by Robert Stark and Hank Lescher was fresh and engaging and, of course, the food at both Gracias Taqueria and Middletown Pizza was delicious.
The participating merchants of Middletown Plaza had their doors wide open and welcomed guests into their shops, including Beauty Center, Bower Chiropractic, Century 21 House of Realty, Middletown Florist & Gifts and Ravid Clothing.
Wine tasting was provided by Six Sigma Wines and was superb, as was the service displayed by each and every one of the vendors who offered everything including art, potter, temporary tattoos and even spiritual healing.
This first event sponsored Operation Tango Mike. Check out www.middletownplaza.com often as the site is updated almost daily. Hope to see you at the next event, July 2.

Once again fire season is upon us.
As I was driving from Lucerne into Lakeport Monday, I observed three drivers toss lit cigarettes out of their windows. Not only is this horrible for the environment but it is very dangerous. I just don’t understand. What’s even more frustrating is these people would never do this in view of an officer that could site them.
Are these idiots aware that the first time fine is $3,400 and after that it’s $20,400?! This is serious stuff. They know it is wrong and harmful and just don’t give a damn.
Coming off at 11th Street there was an woman coming off of Highway 29, having traveled north attempting to make a right hand turn. She tossed out her cigarette and turned in behind me. She followed me into the Bank of America parking lot. I approached her and her beautiful SUV asking why she tossed her cigarette out the window? I attempted to raise her consciousness and she told me to mind my own business.
This is my business, it’s everyone’s business for it affects us all.
Think about that the next time you go to toss out your butt. If it doesn’t catch anything on fire it will sit there in an attempt to biodegrade for approximately seven years! Thanks a lot.
