   Also going on this weekend is the Hawthorne Street Fair. There will be great food, a diverse variety of  music and tons of sidewalk sales. The street fair is on August 28thand will close down most, if not all of Hawthorne. The Belmont Street Fair is coming on September 10th.

  Every last Friday the Portland Art Museum has free admission 5pm-8pm. The currant exhibit is Allure Of The Automobile. Sixteen of the rarest cars in the world gathered together for a once in a lifetime display. All the cars are privately owned and this is the only time this selection of cars will ever be together. The exhibit was originally at the Louvre in Paris, France and in Atlanta, Georgia, the only other places in the world this exhibit has appeared.

  I hope everyone is having a great week!

  Living Green

  Living in the Hawthorne neighborhood, you definitely encounter sustainable businesses.  Everywhere you look; composting, recycling,  and local goods on sale.  Have you ever thought about the business owners?  Where do they live?  What impact do they personally have on the environment?  Is their lifestyle in line with their business motto?  That is a question that should be asked.    After visiting  Dr. Jonathan Warmflash, Neighborhood Dentist, located at 2044 SE Hawthorne Blvd, that thought had  never crossed my mind.   He lives and works in the Hawthorne neighborhood.  He walks to work and is very involved with the community.  I realized that I am not only supporting a sustainable business, but  a sustainable lifestyle.   He is extremely sensitive to the environment and the local  community.  To learn more about the Neighborhood Dentist, visit http://www.warmflashdmd.com.  Make sure you click on the tradition tab to see classic photos!  See you there!
