​Toledoan since: I was born
I go to the Maumee River to fish for the best view in Toledo.
(1) When out of towners visit, I always take them to the farmers market and The Toledo Zoo— the best zoo in the country.
- Opal Covey is the Toledoan I most admire.
(2) The Sundance Kid Drive-In is my secret spot.
- The hardest thing about living in Toledo is dealing with cold weather half of the year, but the best thing is all of our wonderful wildlife and metroparks— it’s a Midwestern Outdoorsman’s dream!
- I always brag about Toledo’s revived sense of pride.
- Too many people think poorly about Toledo, but it’s wrong because… it is like they are thinking of a different city. Toledo has made huge improvements in the past 10 years, especially in the last few, and is developing and on track for another great generation ahead.
- The street I drive/walk on most often is anything but I-75!
(3) Going to Kengo Sushi and Yakitori makes me feel like I am out of town.
- Makers Mart at Handmade Toledo is my favorite annual event.
- My favorite neighborhood is Uptown, of course.
- I wish Northtowne Mall was still open
