Good moring, Lizards!

I wanted to say something about Detroit. The city where I grew up. It was terrific with the layout of main arteries like spokes of a wheel leading to the (downtown) hub which was beautifully located adjacent to the Detroit River. Easy to get around. Factories of all sizes with small and medium shops everywhere. On a hot summer night when all was very still I could barely hear the din of the factories which were not close by at all. Public transportation was convenient and everywhere.
Entrenched corruption. Too bad.

I’m from Kalamazoo, so DayTwa was one place to go for concerts, pro sports, the cool Grand Prix, Greek Town, the car show….stayed way up in the Ren Center one time, looking down on the statue of Joe Louis…had alot of fun times there…long ago
