My wife and I made the trip up from Toronto, and just wanted to say we're really appreciating the vibe here so far. A charming, vibrant city you've got here!
Sorry, I thought I saw E. Lansing when MSU was mentioned. The Dairy Store has some of my favorite ice cream of all time. There is (well, used to be) a fantastic vinyl store on the main drag, there's a Pinball Pete's. My partner plays guitar and is obsessed with Elderly Instruments. It's a college town; there are far worse destinations.
