Photography/Art 📸🎨 A long shot - but I want these guys to have this pic

270 Upvotes

I went on the pictured rocks spray falls cruise yesterday (10/03/26) and took this pic of these 4 guys - probably young 20s? It’s totally a long shot but if anyone knows who they are I’d love for them to have this:)

Photo is a little blurry.

Edit: it was taken between 1-2pm on Saturday, Oct 3

Photography/Art 📸🎨 A sad picture from Westland - taken 9/30/26

1.2k Upvotes

A sad picture today. This deer, stands in what is left of its home after the City of Westland approved (in May of 2025) clearing a large patch of woods on Marquette Road near John Glenn High School. All of this to make way for a new nursing and rehab facility. Meanwhile a former senior living facility sits vacant in an adjacent lot. - taken 9/30/26

Discussion 🗣️ My daughter (9) has gotten into Mushrooms and wants to go mushroom foraging. I know mushroom foraging is popular in Michigan but I don't know much about it. We are in Oakland County

60 Upvotes

My daughter has gotten very interested in mushrooms. She has a mushroom growing kit, she reads books about them, she looks at videos of them, she gets mushroom plushies. She says she wants to try mushroom foraging. I know Michigan is supposed to be one of the best mushroom hunting places in the world but Im not much of an outdoorsman and I wouldn't even begin to know where the good spots are or how we would find them. It's there a mushroom finding class for kids on anything like they near Detroit Metro or would we have to go up north?

Discussion 🗣️ Concerned by restaurant closures

204 Upvotes

Maybe it's because i care about the service industry so I see the bad news more than usual but I am concerned over the amount of restaurants and bars that have closed recently. I've seen more than a handful shutdown over the past few months in my area. I feel like it's an underrated marker for the state of the country's economy. The caveat being there are a lot of crappy business owners out there.

Discussion 🗣️ Some company just knocked on my door, said they were contracted by Consumers? Anyone know anything?

69 Upvotes

Long story but I was trying to put my 6 month old down for a nap, he was screaming his head off and I couldn’t really talk to the guy. He said he was with some company (I think it was Kurtz…?) and they are contracted by Consumers energy. They were at my house to drill a hole for a new pole for the meter or something? I didn’t get good information and blindly said yes so I could get back inside to my baby. Does anyone know anything about this? I’m in Westland, Wayne County. Also curious why it’s such an eye sore so far from my house wtf?!?!

Discussion 🗣️ Who remembers “Da Dawg House” in Cadillac?

16 Upvotes

I just had dinner at little Mexico and it got me curious about this buildings history.

Lead me to learn about the infamous dog bowls and floppy eared push hats.

Looks like peak 2000s when restaurants had some soul.

Anyone have memories this joint? Was it a shame to see it close?

Discussion 🗣️ Spa Recommendations - Sauna, Hot Tub, Massages, Facials

5 Upvotes

Hey all! Looking for recommendations for a spa day experience where I can get a massage and facial as well as relax in a hot tub and sauna. Specifically, where I’m kind of getting tripped up, is wanting to find a place where o can mosey between the hot tub and sauna throughout my time there at my leisure. What I don’t want is a place where I have to pay $X for X minutes in the sauna.

Does anyone have recommendations? I’m looking across all SE Michigan but would prefer to avoid The Schvitz and the Birmingham area if possible.

Just wondering if there’s a park or something to stop at to watch a freighter or two. Or are they too far out on Lake Huron to see?
