Sounds like that woman has some head problems. But everyone needs a trip to Detroit, if only to gain appreciation for where they come from. <br /><br />It's in sad shape, after being such a dynamic city...world-famous for being the "arsenal of democracy" during WWII, the B-24s flying (literally) out of the vast factory at Willow Run. The automobile plants converted to Jeeps and trucks. People have always worked hard in Detroit, and they have always played hard. <br /><br />I've been going there since I was three years old, to visit relatives, and I've had friends there for decades, mostly natives. One of them even taught in the Detroit school system for 37 years. She's retired now, and she's also quite loco in the cabeza, but we won't talk about that.<br /><br /> Detroit might have been quite an experience, Mr. S. And quite a story. I was sorta disappointed when it didn't happen.Grizz 65https://www.blogger.com/profile/02892702223228764894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-9458174024028159302021-07-22T09:47:58.670-05:002021-07-22T09:47:58.670-05:00I would have driven to the airport to see if the t...I would have driven to the airport to see if the truck was really there.

If you're driving and she tells you to slow down, you better listen, I know I would. Never too late , sure would be interesting.Connellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18406704590565406630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3972382144120426476.post-31103654907475076432021-07-22T07:46:07.585-05:002021-07-22T07:46:07.585-05:00Heartbreaking.

But I guess it could have been worse, if you'd just gone to Detroit and been met by a phalanx of cops rather than an auditorium full of eager youngsters.<br /><br />johntatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10088632798195131329noreply@blogger.com
