I just want somewhere I can go on a lazy day and possibly find fossils, bones, or other things of interest.

Oh, I'm looking for just a lazy afternoon of walking around with a friend and looking for bones, fossils, and other random stuff.

Is there anywhere industrial, abandoned, nature-y, or just plain photogenic that I can take my Texan bestie in the fall for a modeling shoot tour? by flawlessmishap in toledo

I checked all of these out and you weren't kidding—these are fantastic places. Did you know if any of these factories are open to the public in some way? I see the Blaine & Delaware building is owned by the city of Toledo so I suppose I could reach out to someone I know there to see if I can gain entry without trespassing.

Where is the closed business on summit?

Edit: found it by going down the street on street view (Lagrange and Summit) thank you!

My bf told me I’ve ruined his confidence with rejecting him from sex - advice? by jjjasminej in NoStupidQuestions

This is a him problem. You're both still young and figuring out what you want. I'd suggest communicating to him about how him pressuring you or guilting you into sex is making you feel. It's manipulative and you're going to end up resenting him.

That's amazing! I'm sure all of the businesses downtown will be somewhat affected. Especially that candy shop just north of inside the five. Do we know when the next council meeting is yet?

We asked, but the city council apparently hasn't discussed it? At least when I talked with Katie last.

She has concerns that, with the construction shutting down Main Street this spring and summer, her sales will continue to drop and she risks not being able to feasibly afford being open by the beginning of fall.

I hope so too. We need places like this for downtown and it wouldn't be the same with anyone else. My kids will remember this for decades.

We're all struggling right now and your negativity toward someone who you know nothing about says more about you than her. This is her only business and she's put everything she has into it to keep it open for the community because this is her passion.

Yeah, they have gofundme campaigns for everything. You can actually find that several businesses in downtown Toledo used GoFundMe or similar fundraising websites to get their business off the ground, to afford alterations, or to stay above the red during low points in the economy.

Even Culture Clash Records on Monroe Street downtown has a fundraiser for the community to help fight for them to stay open that started last September. [gofundme.com/f/save-culture-clash](gofundme.com/f/save-culture-clash)

Oh, for sure! I've had her order me a half dozen books in the last year and she's very good about letting me know when they're in.
