Great Blue Heron at McGee Marsh off of Route 2, on the way.
People looking for things to do. Well Deb and I ran up to Detroit Sunday for a few hours in Detroit. Our goal was Motown/Hitsville, soul food, and whatever else came our way.
he Monument to Joe Louis, known also as The Fist, Dedicated on October 16, 1986, it was commissioned by Sports Illustrated magazine from the Mexican-American sculptor Robert Graham, and poured by the legendary bronze artist, Rolf Kriken, is a 24-foot-long (7.3 m) arm with a fisted hand suspended by a 24-foot-high (7.3 m) pyramidal framework.
Just amazing thinking of the music and musicians that went through this door. The recording studio is in the dirt floor garage!
Eminem's boyhood home. Burned down in 2013.
Shutles and 8-mile, home of 8-Mile Mobile Homes, where Eminem lived as a teen, also in movie "8-mile"
You can still get a place there. Even at Snapfinger and Urbanek!
One tank of gas, good times, musical history and Detroit! Check it out.
