bedtime story

i just spent a re-energizing weekend in detroit with an old friend


and a new friend.

we went to this little place where it is christmas all year.




we could partake of gingerbread houses,

speak many languages,

and spy on santa.


we also visited the silent night chapel (a replica of the real silent night chapel in austria) because christmas is really all about jesus.

then we visited a quaint german town



where i got to introduce my old friend to food from my ethnic heritage



the deliciousness made me happy.

the next day, we went over the bridge to canada.


we did not eat at a canadian mcdonalds,



but we did gaze at the detroit skyline

before taking the tunnel under the river back to the states.

i saw funny things while in michigan.


i saw impactful things while in michigan. (the bus rosa parks rode. ironically, i sat in the back.)


i had a great time while in michigan.
the end.
more thoughts of the serious variety tomorrow.
