Phew... Going through US Customs was a bit trying... No searching but a lot of questions meant - I supposed - to catch us with something bad... Who knows. We did not loose any meal. We're in the middle of a fairground, with a weak WiFi but OK. The only analog TV channels are from Detroit but the Detroit area offers 22 digital channels, many

Longer day than expected but we grinded the flying condo to a halt. No problem other than a sticking lock on the propane door.

Ah Detroit...home to the Pacers-Pistons brawl at the palace, the Russian national hockey team, and what will be the remnants of the once great American auto-industry once the bailout money is misappropriated and gone. I just had a burger at Chili's too for lunch, figuring it will be the last ...

... This fellow graduated with Bill, so we'll see if they can recognize each other. I mean it's only been 46 years!
Just got word that our shipboard account has been credited $250 as an "investor benefit" What a great deal! If you own 100 shares of the cruise line stock, you can collect shipboard credit every time you cruise. I got lucky and bought at the very ...

... the conservative nature of Grosse Ile for the aloof culture integral in Spain. But, it all built up for the ultimate escape, España. Boarding the plane with the my new closest friends (coincidentally the only English-speaking friends I would encounter) and putting thousands of miles behind us was one of the most liberating experiences I can recall.  

Sorry to dwell on the negative attitudes about my summer.  To compensate, I am including some finer pictures of my home town.  Enjoy. 

... an old school bus converted with an awning out the side where you get served. They have a couple of picnic table for you to sit at. Just before we left Canada we spotted one of these and had to stop and try. The chips were great with brown hot gravy on the side. Next we had to spend all our Canadian change so off to the servo next door to fill up on candy (sorry I am turning into a yank I will have to change my vocablury on the plane ...

... took us out to eat at one of her favorite eateries, Monaco Grille Méditerranéen - where we had a nice supper. The food was good. When we got back to Maureen's, Katie and Kelly were there to greet us along with Max, Tobi, and BooBoo. Max is their pet Rottweiler who is more of a horse than a dog. He is still a puppy at just one and a half years old. He was brought up with Tobi, their pet Shitzu so Max thinks he is a lap dog like Tobi. BooBoo is ...

My mind has been on 10 other things after the catering event, and I have been waiting for some pictures, so I haven't updated you on how it went. So instead of letting it hang, I want to share my after thoughts. First of all, being in this project with my current mindset, in a supportive rather than a leading role, has given me a fresh perspective. It's a breath of fresh air. Those who have any experience working with me ...

... check out their website http://www.tsunamiglassworks.com. On my way home, I thought to myself that in Oct I would probably be in the US, but it would be great to come back for a weekend to take the class, and so I should start looking for places to stay when I come back. While I was thinking about that, I saw this interesting red brick house with a sign saying 'The Nisbet Inn, English Pub and Restaurant', and the purple curtain on the 2nd floor attracted my attention. I ...

... has equipped the home with everything to make it a comfortable home. She even prepared a bunch of white roses and a bottle of sparkling wine to celebrate our reunion. So sweet of her. Jordan and I have discussed that in our future we would like to buy more properties and rent them out (if we can afford), we definitely would like to recreate the same pleasant experience for our tenants. My favourite place in the apartment is of course the kitchen ...

The Arrival We arrived in Maui to the soothing sound of the ocean and the warm breeze from the trade winds beckoning us to relax. What a beautiful place. Being our second time in Maui in two years, it was more like a "homecoming" than anything else. It was so familiar to us; the sights, the sounds, the ubiquitous ABC stores... :)
