Putt-Putt and other fun

Dan managed to escape working for most of the weekend! I picked up some delicious Michigan strawberries at the farmer’s market, then oogled vintage bikes at the flea market. We made yummy yogurt parfaits and looked for a little sister for Kona Then we played putt-putt (btw, what do you think of the skirt? I [...]

New This Week!

There’s so many things going on in Detroit this weekend, I’m not sure where we’ll end up and what we’ll do! One thing I know I won’t be doing – running. I’ve got shin splints for the first time ever, and doctor has ordered no running and no wearing any shoes other than my gym [...]

Bob Seger, 1977, Pine Knob

I was excited to find this ticket stub inside a Bob Seger “Live Bullet” record sleeve last week. I can’t even imagine how awesome this concert must have been. Bob Seger at Pine Knob for $6, wow. Pine Knob will always be Pine Knob to me, I just will never call it “The DTE Energy [...]

Star Wars Mail In

Last week I watched a Star Wars movie marathon over a couple days, and then found this mail-in while cutting up the Star Wars soundtrack for this notebook. The mail in must have been made by the same company who sold Rocky’s T shirts. I’m not sure which one’s cooler…wait, what am I saying… Star [...]
