Today Sunday is the last day for the Plymouth Ice Spectacular in Michigan.  Yesterday was a beautiful day to stroll thru Kellogg Park and look at the ice sculptures, But it is a little rainy today

.

The weather was a little warm yesterday so the sculptures were cloudy and cracked looking though the newly carved ones looked great.

There were a lot of people out at 10 am in the morning and I am sure downtown Plymouth was packed later in the afternoon and at night.

There were carved fishes, squirrels, snowboarders, skaters and much more.

Dog sleds.  This year they didn't have many huge ice carvings as they have had in the past.  But they had more carvings than they have had.  Sure the ice wasn't the best because of the warmer weather, but it was fun trying to figure out what the carving was.

If you have nothing to do tomorrow come on down to Plymouth Michigan and enjoy the festival.  There are a few arts and crafts booths.  And lots of restaurants and bars to get some great food and drink and to   warm up.  Or you can do a little shopping in all the unique mom and pop stores.  Buy local and support people who live in the area.

I hope you have a great time.           Russ Ravary your local real estate agent

 Whether you are looking to buy in Andover Lakes neighborhood or just looking around Plymouth Township neighborhoods here is a quick glimpse of what has sold in the last six months in the Andover lakes subdivision.

What is interesting that a home that was leased in Andover Lakes only lasted 9 days.  And the sold homes in Andover Lakes were on the market an average of 75 days. 

Andover Lakes subdivision doesn't really have any lakes.  They are really small ponds.  Great for viewing wildlife, but not for swimming or boating.  Here are other Oakland County Lakes and Livingston County lake front real estate

I stopped into Ironwood Grill one of downtown Plymouth's newest restaurants the other day .  Just open three weeks it was pretty full at lunch the other day.

From outside on the street it looked expensive.  Nice tables, dark wood interior.  A classey looking place.  Not a sloppy bar.  I thought it was going to be pricey but it wasn't.  It was a medium ranged priced menu.  They had ribs, salads, burgers, wood fired pizzas and lots more.  I myself just had a burger.  I'm a burger type of guy but my doctor says I should be more of a salad type of guy.  But let's not digress.

They brought out some fresh bread before the meal.  I'm a bread type of guy.  I think I learned that from my Italian wife Marianne.

This was the mushroom Swiss burger with seasoned fries.  I was going to have the Reuben but I changed my mind at the last minute.  I saw a plate of ribs and coleslaw go by and they looked mighty good too.  Didn't see a pizza but if they are half as good as the burger you won't go wrong.

                    If you are a businessman the Ironwood Grill in Plymouth is a place that is classy enough and yet reasonably priced.  Also if you want to keep up with the Wings, Lions, Pistons, or Tigers they have enough TVs to see what's happening.

Downtown Plymouth Michigan is lively downtown and a great place to live.  Take a stroll in the Kellogg Park after you visit Ironwood Grill.  Visit the historical musuem.
