Join me on the second annual “Bridges of Ypsilanti” Labor Day walk meeting at the Freight House at 10am.

Sunday we’ll visit all 17 bridges (7 miles) in Ypsi/EMU.

Monday we’ll hit 10 bridges (3 miles).

Also, since the ypsireal website has a 2pm start time for Monday’s walk, I’m happy to walk the 10 Bridges twice in a day.

Cost is $5/person.

Treasures from the past. The time capsule from Ypsilanti’s 150th anniversary filled with water.

Luckily someone had the common sense to dig it up and open it last week. There are more treasures to be revealed once they are dry.

All time capsule items will be catalogued and stored at the Ypsilanti Historical Society Museum.
