I live in the Metro Detroit area (about and hour outside of Toledo, Ohio) and all restaurants are closed. Everyone walks around with masks and quite frankly, they are frightened. Today my Fiance and I decided to drive down to Ohio for a night out at a steak house. Damn were we surprised. It felt "normal". People were not jumping out of the way as you walked in their path and they were super polite.
In reality, Gretchen Whitmer is outsourcing Michigan's restaurant industry to Ohio and Indiana. We drove down there and spent our money paying Ohio state taxes. What an idiot this woman is.
BTW we made it home safe. Who would have thought??? Gretchen has our community scared to their teeth, it's frightening what she is doing.
I live just north of Detroit. She's only following the science and data. And I guess the science is saying covid can't spread over the michigan/ohio border. She's such a dumbass.
So do I. We went to Ann Arbor today and holy shit man... we were walking in a park and a guy literally took his cane and used it as a social distance barrier as we walked passed him. WTF, that place is a cess pool. Much different feel in Ohio. It is sad because the server said their restaurant and others have been extremely busy because Michiganders are going there. All of our tax dollars are going to Ohio. What a cunt, to put it nicely.
Ann Arbor is the New York of the Midwest. I mean, I'm a Michigan fan but they don't make it easy.
To be honest, I hate Ann Arbor, including the Wolverines. The people there are not my favorite. I like a few spots to eat (Zingermans). However, my fiancé spent quite some time at U of M and today we had engagement photos taken around the area. I don't head there very often.
