It's easy, but it's tough sometimes. I'm also a fan of vintage Chicago television, too.

The roughest was the blizzard of 1967, but the last one I've been through was 11 years ago.

*puts that on bucket list* As much as Detroit's been through the past few decades, it still boasts one of the nicest urban parks around (a/k/a Belle Isle).
Now if Detroit will rise like a phoenix and take its' place next to Chicago as a king of the Great Lakes.....
