And we have some of Rich's bees in our own backyard and they are amazing

. That was an enlightening article, Detroit Scooter. It got me to thinking:

Maybe Detroiters need to change their perspective on the area. Consider it farm land, prairie, woodlands, pasture instead. Buy a tractor.

Since there is the bee crisis in our country, maybe Detroit could become a leader in keeping these wonderful stingy insects. That would serve everyone and everything so well.

It would be a big change for Detroit. Somehow you would need to get new leaders who have a little imagination to repurpose the region. And people to actually buy the land [[without those horrific property taxes) and work it in a smart husbandry way.
