Concrete Soul

Well, this was an accidental picture, taken by my bus stop on the way home from work in Pioneer Square.

Saturday Night

It's April, myself and Laura! 

This picture is technically on the 14th, since it was taken after midnight. This was the beginning of the night, it was a very late night, ending in the ID. 

Kenyan Beer

April was pretty excited to drink Kenyan beer at Pan Africa.

Disappearing Seattle

Walking to pick up some lunch today, I noticed that the City seemed to have disappeared.

Pallada!

A view of Pallada, which once was the world's fastest sailboat, from my rooftop.

Phone Home

There is a working phone booth at my afternoon bus stop. I'm hoping one day I'll actually catch a photo of someone on it.

Love Note

I love coming home to crazy notes from my apartment manager.

Here is the context... 

In case you are wondering, here is the note:

Clear Instructions

It's probably just easier this way.

Taken on my block, at 2nd and Bell, of course.

Somewhere in Middle America

Flying home. To Seattle. From Detroit.

Whoa, just realized, I said flying home and home was Seattle. That means Detroit isn't home? Wow.

Also, bonus pic... Piper & Shea.

Shea!

Shea loves to lay on the couch and get a belly scratch. That's what she was waiting for here.

Fancies

Carol lives in the house behind  my mom's house. On her day off, we relaxed at the pool and she made my toes fancy! 

Also, this shot was taken with the retro setting, that's why it looks a bit weird.

Detroit Sky

I took so many great photos today, it's hard to choose just one. I did love this one, however. It's a random pic of the sky, from Downtown Detroit.

And a bonus pic today, the Kite Waterfall from the Compuware Building.

Some random fact from Wikipedia:

The building's water feature was designed by WET Design, the same people who designed the fountains at Bellagio and the Winter Olympic cauldron. It features fifteen glass "kites" and, at more than 14 stories tall, represents the largest indoor, hanging water feature in the world.

Bicycle

I went to my dad's house today and he showed me his new toy... He bought a three wheel bike to ride to the store, or ride around, or whatever. He was really into it, for sure. Also, he put a motor on it so he can have some extra power when going up hills.

So, yeah, if you see a guy riding this bike in the Novi area... yeah, that's my papa.

Roosevelt's Closed?

Roosevelt's was like the quintessential Farmington Hills bar. It's where you run into everyone from high school, from classes ten years in front and behind you. It's where you meet your friends for a night cap before heading to your parents house, during college summer breaks. It's where you'd watch games, play pool, and hope the doorman wasn't checking your ID when you were not quite of age.

Well, apparently, Roosevelt's is closed until further notice.

Barrio in Birmingham Tasting

I was invited by The Hungry Dudes to taste some foods at Barrio, a new restaurant in Birmingham.

I took a ton of pics, but this was my fav of the day. It's Hacienda (another place here in Detroit) chips with Verde and Mango Salsa. Delicious.

Also, bonus pic - check out their tequila list!
