Hello, minimal poster here but longtime lurker. Fascinating subject here. I wanted to share our story. Both of my parents grew up at 7 mile and a Chalmers. When they married [[1951) they bought a...

Hi everyone,

Long time lurker, occasional poster. I was driving through the city yesterday, and took a close look at the current streetlight upgrade happening. I am amazed at how fast this...

Hi everyone,

I am a long time reader and occasional poster and have even gone to a few of the DYES picnics.

I am noticing around the city that slowly the streetlights are being upgraded. I...

+1 on what Gnome and Honky Tonk said about St Francis fish fry. I was there for the opening at 11am last Friday as usual. Excellent as usual. The people and the atmosphere also really make half...

Gotta agree with Gnome on this one! Going there for lunch today! Cannot wait! The food is good, but what REALLY makes it for me is the people at St. Francis! Especially the little old lady that...

All of the William X. Keinsle [[Spelling of the last name might be wrong) murder mysteries place in Detroit. William X. Keinsle was an ex Catholic priest. ALL of his books surround Detroit [[a LOT) and...

Hey Detroitlove,

I'm a lurker too. I say a little bit here and there. I went last year and had a great time. Looking forward to going this year.

Count me in for one Kathleen! The wife and...

Agreed,

Looks like Metro Beach. In the one picture you can see the boardwalk. Plus the style of the building and the concrete look like Metro does in front of the locker rooms.

cartune,

How did you acquire an old Detroit streetlight? I've wanted one for YEARS!

Stromberg2,

Thanks! I'll be there, Good Lord willing. I might even drive the A100!

BTW...I just saw a little clip on Channel 7 news about St. Francis of Asissi's fish frys. All the people...

Hi everyone,

I don't post much, and I know that this topic has been beat to death, but I just returned from yet another fish fry at St. Francis of Asissi. I've been going to these fish frys for...

I too have to second the votes for St. Francis of Asissi. Gotta love the dedicated people, and delicious fish.
For those of you that've been there, the pop guy and the short skinny old lady that...

I grew up not far from there. I used to go there in the early to mid eighties when I was in jr. high-high school. The go-carts were great. They said "no crashing" but we never got kicked out. The...

Hey I know that I don't post much and generally lurk, but can I come too?

Greetings,

I just wanted to say that myself and some friends went to St. Francis of Acissi [[spelling?) for the fish fry today at lunch. As usual the food was excellent, and the people are the...

Why do we have to eliminate the word Christmas to appease those that aren't?
Christmas IS about the birth of Christ.

Greetings,
I don't post much, but I must say that this event was a GREAT time. My family and I had a lot of fun. Far more stuff there than I imagined. The kids loved the tour of the living...

I did also see mention on that link of my all time favorite - the "Chatham Plus" at Van Dyke and Chicago in Warren. At the time I'd never been to a Meijer's or a Walmart Supercenter [[there certainly...

Yes, that's correct.

Again, Davemarc, I think I talked to you. I had my wife and kids in tow, AND I talked to you about that wagon. We kidded around about riding in the back seat, and how our wives would NEVER allow us...
