Alexander Michael's, or "Al Mike's" as it's affectionately known, is one of those special nightlife hangouts where you'll feel right at home the minute you set foot in the door. The low-key atmosphere and laid-back attitude of its patrons will ensure that your first visit won't be your last. There's a tasty menu available that features burgers, nachos and fried pickles, among many other delectable choices. And even though the kitchen closes early, the bar is open late, and that alone is reason enough to stay late at Al Mike's.

Car enthusiasts from all over the country will definitely want to park it at the Backing Up Classics Auto Museum.  While the venue is small, it makes excellent use of the space it does have by presenting some intriguing autos.  Some of the featured exhibits include cars as far back as the 1920s right through the auto boom of the 50s and 60s.  There is also a row dedicated exclusively to Mustangs.  Muscle cars, classics, and standards are all spotlighted in this fun, highly popular museum.
