Actually I have enjoyed it, not too hot, not very muggy. Went out to Ann Arbor to have lunch with John70T and Kachi and they gave me a tour of the city. Very nice, very clean. About 45 miles East of Detroit.

In Detroit, now that you mention it, I didn't see any abandoned or burned cars, but I haven't driven the whole city. The streets are actually pretty litter free, which is surprising.

Can you imagine starting with GM 30 years ago, taking out a mortgage and when you're ready to retire your home is worth nothing cause it's surrounded by burned out houses? All that principal and interest for 30 years and now you've got nothing to show for it.
