Things to do in Lansing, Michigan (MI): The Best Gift & Specialty Shops
The birthplace of the Oldsmobile and Michigan's automotive center, Lansing offers visitors a number of car-related sites like plant tours and automobile museums, but there are other forces driving this capital city. On the political side, there's the award-winning State Capitol Building, completely restored in 1992, where tourists are wowed by the glass-floor rotunda and acres of decorative handpainted surfaces. The Michigan Historical Museum, which boasts a great collection of items from Michigan's past, including a recreated copper mine, will please history buffs. Children and families will enjoy taking a camel ride at the Potter Park Zoo or spending the day biking through Sleepy Hollow State Park. On the cultural side, the nearby campus of Michigan State University is a must-see for the Kresge Museum and for the beautiful campus itself. Entertaining and educational attractions, great shopping, fabulous restaurants and a variety of affordable accommodations make Lansing worth the ride.

Horrocks has just about everything from soup to nuts, cheeses to deli meats, fresh fruits and veggies, fresh POPCORN, good dairy offerings, and beautiful fresh flowers and plants. A warm and inviting place to spend quality time especially right now when it's a tad cold outside.

Looking for a beautiful, unique, special gift? Absolute Gallery is the place to go. The owner is soooo nice, as is Ricky (the pup mascot). You'll find so many unique gifts and cards here; you'll be glad you discovered this little gem. (Reminds me of Sutton's Bay!)
