Down & Out in Detroit


We were told to avoid 8 mile while driving thru Detroit, Michigan. Ironically, we HAD to stop in 8 mile for a bathroom break as there was construction everywhere else. But to my surprise, I found the people here to be much more pleasant than those I encountered at our hotel in Ann Arbor the night before. The city is clearly in a time of major recession - abandoned properties line the highway, closed signs on stores- but I believe the people of Detroit will pull through.
