This is a great place to go if you are purchasing items in quantity for a church group, or a school carnival etc. They offer hundreds of items (some very cheap) that can be purchased individually to use for prizes. Items like super balls, yo-yos, small toy cars etc. are available. The assortment is overwhelming.

This is a family favorite for us. We have been staying at this hotel for many years as it continues to grow and expand. I really consider this hotel a destination. You can spend quite a while just walking through all the indoor gardens, walkways and watching the fountains. Sometimes you will find entertainment playing music or dancing in one of the lobby areas. There are several really nice shops, great restaurants and a food court. The pool area is nice (outdoor) and they have opened a new spa that I haven't tried. The hotel is usually pretty crowded, often with bus loads of people coming to Nashville, but it is so large that you don't really notice. It is not at all unusual to see a country music star walking through the lobby. The large Opry Mills Mall is within walking distance. This is a fun place to visit.

Don't let the name fool you, this isn't really a mall. Daisy Lane Antique Mall is a building that houses room after room of Antiques and junk. They have many beautiful items, and also as in most places like this, items that you can't imagine anyone would want. For the treasure hunter, this is place to go to spend an hour or two looking for that must have!
This recently closed!

Not for me

I guess it depends on what you are looking for when you are shopping. I know that many people do go to Global Fashions and it has been open several years. I will say that the owner is friendly, and very dedicated to the community. That said, you never really know what is going to be here. It is sort of like a garage sale with lots of new stuff. Clothing is new, but there are some used things. Booth space is rented for various items. This is just not my style, but if you like flea markets...this might be your place.

While on vacation in Petosky, MI we took time to visit the Crooked Tree Arts Center. We really enjoyed both the air-conditioning (it was unseasonably hot that day!) and the beautiful local artwork. It was our first visit to the area-and we were excited to see what the gallery had to offer. The website says "Crooked Tree Arts Center was founded in 1971 to sponsor and encourage activities in the arts for residents of Charlevoix and Emmet counties.

Do you ever hear a song and really just want to know the words. I use this site a lot now that I download so many songs from iTunes instead of buying the entire cd with the words in the booklet. Many artists are listed on the site, and it is fairly user friendly. You just need the name of the artist to locate the song lyrics.

This is an interesting website if you are into the art of beading. It is somewhat like ebay, only just for beads, tools and other items related to beading. It actually is possible to get some good buys on this site, as it is so specialized that you aren't bidding against everyone, everywhere. Some of the pictures are hard to see, so be sure to ask questions about what you are buying-but, overall a good website.
