Middletown Library

A comment to a recent post mentioned the Middletown Library. Here it is.



I knew there was a Middletown Branch of the Frederick County Public Library because I had seen their web site; but I hadn’t seen the building. I’ve been walking up and down Main Street, camera in hand, for a couple of months now, yet I didn’t notice this sign until today. The sign is right there on Main Street at the intersection with Prospect Street, pointing the way to the building located just one property back from Main. The library is easy to find, yet I believe it is surprisingly hidden considering the important function it serves.

Less Than Four

Just two weeks ago, gasoline was selling for $4.01 per gallon at this station. Today it is down to $3.91. That's great! It's going down ... for now. I bet the roller coaster price ride continues.

Named For What It Is

Streets are often named for what they are. Middletown has a Main Street, a Church Street and a Schoolhouse Street. No surprise there. Those names appear in many towns. But this is the first Garage Drive I've ever seen. We can probably guess its origin.

Middletown is very patriotic and religious. Here is a little of both.
