Historic Marshall sits at the crossroads of Michigan, nestled right alongside where the I-94 and I-69 highways meet in the central southern part of state. Known for it's well preserved architecture and many interesting museums, Marshall is well worth a visit any time of the year. 

We start off at one of Marshall's most famous, and delicious places, historic Schuler's Restaurant, where we visit with (kind of) new owner Sue Damron. We love Sue's story, she started at Schuler's in 1998 as owner Hans Schuler's executive assistant. She worked her way up, and was named President and Managing Partner in 2014, and sole owner in 2019. She has a vision, and she is making it a reality in Marshall.

Sue and her team recently opened a brand new, and much needed event space in downtown Marshall called Venue 19Zero9. The name is a reference to when the building was originally constructed. The new space features fesh clean lines, a cozy front reception area, a huge space to throw a great party in, and plenty of private spots for your wedding party to get ready in. 

There are some people who are interested in things, and then there are people who are passionate. Mike Schragg is really, really into the United States Post Office. He was a mail carrier and post master for years in Marshall, in fact, the post office there is named for HIM, the only one named after a living person. He took this passion and over the last few decades has created what might be the most intersting museum in Marshall, the United States Postal Museum. You have to call to make an appointment for this one, but let me tell you, it's worth it.

One of the biggest events of the year is the Marshall Historic Home Tour which is happening this September 6 and 7. We have on the chair of the tour Debbi Denedict, who gives us all the details on how to best enjoy this special time. Note: do not miss the Honolulu House.
