Downtown Pleasanton's "Jump into Summer" themed 1st Wednesday Street Party kicks off at 6 p.m. tonight with live music, local art and a farmers market.

Last month, I was crushed to not have 'Sonoma' chicken on a stick...the best anywhere!!! Which is why since First Wed started they had the longest lines from 6 - 9, every month, every year, for almost 2 decades. I'll pass on the much too common 'truck' thing. I want those BBQ grills and overloaded sticks. THAT is what brought me last month...haven't decided about tonight, since I won't get my usual day-after lunch.
