If you look at the planks holding the bridge up, you can read many love notes and I was here with names and dates. I admired one couple who came here. One was nervous because they were going to propose. The other was clueless because they had no idea why they were standing in the middle of a bridge over a waterway. I wonder where they are today. The bridge is one of those attractions that you wouldn't know about unless you did your research.

This is another fantastic MUST SEE Frank Lloyd Wright home…read more After seeing this one, my fiance and I have decided that we will try our very best to go and tour all of Frank's houses. When you pull up to this house, there is a neighborhood that is built around it. Everything preserved though that is on the property, so no need to worry. Sadly, it was raining when we went, but we still were able to have a great experience. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and went quite in depth for each part of the house. I think the tour was about an hour or so. These types of houses are very interesting because while you are being told about how the room was built, how it was used or something else related to Frank or the house, you can truly picture yourself as a member of the family that lived in the house. The tour is so great I'd do it again! Photos attached are from online. No phones allowed so I left mine in the car. Only posting pictures from the outside. See for yourself for the inside!

We were lucky to arrange a private tour--it was off-season and the house was normally closed for…read moretours. Our guides were Harvey and Steve, who took us through every part of the house and answered all of our questions. Steve was a patient and knowledgeable guide, and Harvey provided a wealth of stories and anecdotes that added to our appreciation of the house. As an early Wright Usonian, Affleck is well worth a visit, especially in understanding how these houses and plans evolved over time.

It's off the main street but along the way you might be driving if you are passing through the city on Green Street. The marker reads: "Built in the 1880s by Daniel Striker, this Queen Anne-style building was once considered the "handsomest residence in Hastings." Born in New York State in 1835, Striker moved as a child with his family to Michigan. He was elected to several offices in Barry County, became a lawyer, and in 1871-75 was elected Michigan secretary of state. Striker was also widely known in banking circles. He died in 1898, and after the death of his wife in 1915 the house became a hospital, later a convalescent home." Stop by and check it out. [Review 11130 overall, 904 of 2019.]

Because I arrived early, I was able to park for free on the street a couple blocks away. The venue itself was very well maintained and very clean. Every staff person was friendly and helpful. Even the process for the meet and greet afterwards was done in an orderly fashion. Even the ticket prices were very affordable. I would highly recommend making the short trip. It's definitely worth it.

The Capitol Theatre is one of the city's most unique and intriguing buildings, rich in colorful…read moreFlint history. Unfortunately, it's fallen on some hard times over the years and has been open for events intermittently over the last few years. There is hope, however, for this beautiful old landmark to shine once again. There are plans for reinvestment into the Capitol Theatre, although over the years, there have been numerous stalled attempts at redevelopment and renewal. It's still gorgeous and the interior, while fading a little bit each passing year, still shows what this Art Deco era theatre was like back in its heyday. The Will Ferrell fllm, "Semi-Pro," was shot on location here about a decade ago. I have fond memories of going to a few concerts here before it closed when I was in high school. It was in a state of decline then, but it was still something to be seen. Shortly before it closed, there were attempts at improvements and renovations, and the Captiol Cafe (a cute little coffee shop) was open late nights upstairs, past the winding, spiral staircase. We used to hang out up there after shows on the weekend back when I was still in high school. Sadly missed. Any longtime Flint native should have some memories of the Captiol Theatre at some point.

When you enter the historic space, you have the opportunity to listen to a auditory history from one of the park guides. You're able to walk up to the petroglyphs due to historical vandals removing the petroglyphs. You aren't able to touch them, but you have to stand behind a road barrier. It is an enclosed space. However, I would always check the park website because it may depend on if it's open. You also have the opportunity to learn more about indigenous culture. This is something I would definitely check out if you're in the area. DNR staff were absolutely and I think it is a very rewarding experience

So they were inaccessible when I visited. The Petroglyphs were a small area, but there are acres and acres of beautiful trails, suitable for biking or walking. I brought my bike, but it was a bit muddy, so I walked it instead. Native Americans created this unusual artwork 300 to 1000 years ago while they participated in spiritual rituals designed to influence the events in the natural world. The petroglyphs are the remnants of the ancient Woodland tribes that once occupied this area. There are tons of interesting trees, that had faces and spirits to them. Took tons of pictures, and could really feel a presence in these woods. You won't get it unless you go. So do it.
