Mornings are really chill in Michigan because its all about the great outdoors.
I'm sorry but i'm really going to blow your mind away with the following shots:
Here's our resident black squirrel called Big Ass, oops i mean Big S (S for squirrel).
And here's the rabbit in the back yard. There were 3 rabbits and 6 squirrels according to last count.
And this guy was on our way to church.
Later in the day, after a totally mindblowing breakfast at Andrea's Diner, we took a trip to town.
And we came to Motown, where music legends were born, in a fairly nondescript neighbourhood. nope, no singing sistahs, swaying evangelists and soulful stars in sight - just houses with broken windows...
and touristy window displays.
and well, no trip to detroit is complete without seeing where eminem grew up.
Of course, no sight of Madonna anywhere...
Well, here i am on a sunday night stealing bandwidth from a neighbour's connection. Its been really chill so far in Michigan. The lawns are neat and the people are friendly, and the air is nice and crisp. And its ok that u hear gun fights at night cos there's a weapon in the basement. That's America for you, you take the good with the bad.
You really see what suburbia means out here: multiple car ownership and long distances, lunches that are 10 miles away and landmarks that are few and far between. i mean. everybody's bound to get lost around here somewhere.
America's been pretty cool to me so far so i'm good. I'm only starting to crave hot meals with soup. I guess i'll turn in soon to the sound of crickets and gunfire (omg, one just went off) cos we're taking a boating trip in Lake Erie tomorrow (right over to Canada)!
Stay tuned.
