Detroit

 

 

 

In January we went to Detroit.  I was not particularly excited to go. We have all heard about Detroit's crime and poverty so, knowing this I was a little apprehensive.  Detroit is so tragically beautiful.  You can look around and imagine how amazing it was during it's heyday. We spent a lot of time driving around the city.  In the end, I had a fantastic time.  The city is rich in history. 

The weather was overcast and very cold the whole time we were there.  Since we are not California whiner babies, it did not bother us that much. The cold is a lot different than Colorado; it has more humidity in the air so it feels a lot colder.  It's that cold that goes right through you, with daggers!  On a couple of the days it was 1 degree with wind chill it went down to -15 degrees!  My Mom would have just cried!
