A few months ago I had seen that my Seattle Mariners were playing a day game up in Detroit on May 22 so a buddy and I bought some tickets and made some plans. The morning of May 22, we flew out on a Northwest Airbus 320 from Indy to Detroit without any problems.   We took the city bus do…

I woke up early and we didn't have to drive to Detroit until 11:30am. I tried to go back to sleep, but couldn't do it. I think it was because I was thinking about flying back home later that day. Also I wanted to be tired during the flight so I'd be able to sleep in the plane and the flight wouldn'…

"We need not to be let alone. We need to be really bothered once in a while. How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important, about something real?"  from Fahrenheit 451-Ray BradburyI first entered the cool marbled entrance of the Detroit Institute of Arts in 1992 as…

It was my last day in the States - at least this time. We left the farm around 10am in order to arrive not to late to Detroit. My flight was at 5:30pm, so we had plenty of time, although we had to drive about 4hrs,  but we wanted to be there early. Also Eric had to drive back home and I didn't…

Sept. 4, 2007:  11am, Detroit International Airport               Excitement, nervousness, anxiety;  These are just some of the many emotions that are consuming my mind right now as I wait another 2.5 hours for my flight to lea…

The night before and the day of the national championship game, it snowed heavily.  At least what I would call heavily for April!!  There were free concerts downtown, but who would want to be outside in that weather?  Well, once again I got to see the Tar Heels win the national …

I've learned that when i buy my own tickets, some very interesting things happen. I thought I bought a ticket on Delta airline (in an attempt to save up some more sky miles), however when I arrived to check in, I ended up being turfed to the Northwest counter to check in for Pinnacle…

   I had the entire morning to get to catch my flight so decided to ride trains out to O'Hare. Since a niece was driving to Chicago from upper Michigan in two weeks, I left my toolbox, duffle bag, sleeping bag, and shotgun case in Dick's garage to be hauled north and traveled light with…

This was my day trip to Detroit to view the North American International Auto Show...If you are a car enthusiast, I encourage you to attend one of these presentations.

The morning started off with the hotel breakfast, which turned out to be not so good. Then I tried to look for a place to access the internet, so I can dispute the charges. As it turned out, I would have to go to the Detroit Public Library, to use the computer there. But the problem was that it was…

Detriot Auto show at Cobo Center.

I lived in the Detroit-Metro area for a couple years. So I booked a flight into DTW thinking I could spend the weekend with a few of my friends there. Well... I didn't bother asking them if they'd be in town, etc until after I booked my ticket... at which time I found out no one was available to …
