Recently we posted the following on Middletown-NJ Facebook's page. 

"Fill in the blank! The best place to have a picnic in Middletown is __________."

And here is what our readers said: 

Alan Quackenbush: Your own backyard to keep a eye out on your own dirty laundry. 

Carolyn Gorski: on the beach!!

Barbara Ann Lynch Fullerton: Deep Cut park

Kathy Dougherty-Stark: Thompson Park

Stavros Konstantinidis: Not at work. 

Joseph J. Cooney: Ideal Beach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! let the other side come over and see what the feds and state did to this beautiful place and not anything they Did...

David Tendler: Highway 35 median between Kohls and Spirits (facing the clown).

Linda Reventlow Midtlyng: Leonardo beach, IF TOWNSHIP WOULD CLEAN IT UP.

Peggy Sue: My own backyard because I take care of it unlike Middletowns u-turns

Kate McKiernan DeNunzio: Sad to see the comments but I agree - Hillside park at the end of chestnut? Between the broken glass and filth it's just not the place to picnic. Disgraceful .

Laura Lynn: Thompson Park or Deepcut Park. Both beautiful

Erika Waltz: Stevenson Park off west front street... A hidden gem of a park with views of shadow lake and lots of wildlife.

Alma Nygren:  Not Deep Cut Park - looks like a prison with the high fences, and they've chased the deer to Tatum so they can kill them...
