SweetWaters Café
123 West Washington The first eveidence of Urban Fairies outside of our home April 7, 2005 There's a lot to say about Sweetwaters. It is my favorite café In Ann Arbor. I like to go there and day dream and brainstorm. I think that I first imagined that the fairies might move downtown while sitting in Sweetwaters. My wife and I have planned and schemed lots of projects there. |

So... I build a riser for the "Fairy Doors of Ann Arbor" poster display and dontcha know the little-guys move in!
|
... While they were at it, they cleaned up the door, repairing the cornice and upgrading the stoop to a tile.

I suppose they serve "micro brew"?
There are a couple of blue cups on saucers, two tumblers "made" from wire nuts and a copy of the "Gnome News". Gnome News is good news!™ |
