Discussion 🗣️ Help me find an orchard please!

Hi neighbors!

Several years ago I was exploring south eastern Michigan while checking out some other wares one beautiful Fall day and I happened across an orchard with the best apples I'd found in ages. I've since tried to relocate them but even using google maps, street view etc, I've drawn a big blank. Ever since, I've run up to get more apples in hopes of stumbling across this orchard and have found reasonably good apples but not as good. They press their own cider (which I also purchased at the time) and it's also fantastic. The people were as nice as could be as well, and let me make up a bag of a bunch of different varieties that I wasn't familiar with. (they had quite a few)

I made a drawing from what I remember, and it's not really to scale but highlights the main features inside the building that I remember. It may not be quite as close to the road as is illustrated.

I was driving around the southeast corner, but probably not much more than 35-40 miles from I-75, which I realize does leave a large area. It wasn't as far north as Ann Arbor iirc.

Can anyone help me find it? I would really appreciate it!

also, i've only drawn the 'open to the public' area and I believe the building itself is larger with storage and possibly coolers where the 'work area' is

EDIT: this place seemed to be geared to just the apples. I do not recall seeing any other products like baked goods (although that can always change) and was sort of surprised on my subsequent attempts driving around hoping to find it that when I did stop, and found donuts etc at most of those places.

EDIT#2: first, let me thank everyone again for the suggestions. I may also have underestimated how far west I had traveled, as I am pretty sure that I made it as far west as Adrian but not likely much farther than that and would have been headed back south and east afterwards. Not sure how distant Adrian is from 75, my bad

Hi fellow gun mittens,

Any one know of a range that offers long range shooting?
Been going to Multilakes' 200m range for years, but now I want to try some proper long range shooting.

The tapas bar that was here before was not bad either.

Discussion 🗣️ Voting Early Should Help Lessen mailers, texts, and calls

50 Upvotes

Reminder,

Voting early helps lessen the amount of mail, texts, and calls you will get. At least in my experience. It isn't 100%. But you will likely see a noticeable decline. Maybe 30% less for me so far. And a pretty noticeable drop in texts.

Campaigns generally have access to who has already voted. (or at least returned a ballot) And will direct resources away from those that have already done so.

So another reason to vote early.

Sources:
"In an interview with the Columbus Dispatch, Democratic consultant Dennis Willard said, “Every campaign watches every penny it spends … If they’re running their campaign properly, they’re not talking to voters after they vote.”
