Many say that there\u2019s nothing to do in Midland, but they can be proven wrong if they look\u00a0close enough. Downtown Midland is filled with a myriad of things to do in the spring time. There\u00a0are small shops, such as\u00a0Little Forks Outfitters,\u00a0walking distance from coffee shops like Journey\u2019s Coffee Shop or Espresso Milano\u00a0. Many students are up for studying while sipping on a hot beverage.<\/p>\n<p>Junior Carolina Donoso believes that Downtown Midland is a great place to spend time during this time of the year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Students should try to visit Downtown Midland more often to give it a more attractive and lively reputation,\u201d Donoso said.<\/p>\n<p>There are a variety of restaurants for everyone&#8217;s taste. Pizza Sam\u2019s is a popular pizza place that many families visit. The Tridge (which is also in the Downtown Midland area),\u00a0sometimes\u00a0includes concerts for the whole family. They can bring blankets and sit down and enjoy the performers. Concerts include Tunes by The Tridge and a variety of bands that\u00a0include music from a variety of genres .<\/p>\n<p>Another place that\u00a0offers many new experiences in the spring is The Alden B. Dow Home and Studio. \u00a0When talking to Craig McDonald, the director of the home,\u00a0he expressed his excitement.\u00a0&#8220;We are so excited that the ice on \u00a0our pond has finally melted.We have already been visited by Canadian Geese, Mallards and Mergansers!\u00a0 We take this as a sure sign that Spring is here!&#8217;\u00a0He included that spring is one of there busiest times with educational programs and daily tours. He also expressed that the Alden B home does attract students because Mr. Dow was challenging the world by creating new expressions in architecture. The Dow Gardens is also a sight to see in the spring.<\/p>\n<p>By: Hannah Raw<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spring: the season when the weather gets a little nicer and there\u2019s more to do.
