Finally got outta town.

Ok, all hell broke loose in Detroit today which made the prospects of leaving town more inviting. Though it goes back to the reasons I stay in Detroit...Never a dull moment.. NEVER. Sadly today police found a body believed to be a victim of a recent carjacking. Also there was a fiery crashing high speed chase into a burger joint this morning and I sat in court to photograph the arraignment of Detroit Public School officials accused of embezzlement. Embezzlement? Yes stealing from children in Detroit essentially. I invite you to check out freep.com if you don't believe me. But alas I am in Dayton, perhaps not the most romantic beginnings considering Barb and I are staying in a Motel 6. But, hey, Motel 6 comes highly recommended from my travel guru buddy William Archie. A man who has literally traveled to Timbuktu and all over the world loves Motel 6. Go figure. Barb laughed when I pulled up in my Grinch That Stole Christmas sleigh. I do have a ton of things. Ridiculous like stacked up hat boxes or something. We giggled all through dinner so happy to begin this adventure and actually witnessed a revival of sorts in the produce section if the local Meijers. "Jesus almighty and blessed Jesus" Said a woman holding the hands of her friends. We walked by and bought our water. Holy water. What's not to love? Mandi
