Paper Thin Walls: October 2010

Paper Thin Walls: March 2011
http://mvospaperwalls.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2011. Sunday Drive takes on Michigan Avenue - Detroit. This past Sunday afternoon I decided to take a drive and ended up driving from Ypsilanti to Detroit along Michigan Avenue. I took some pictures along the way. Wayne and Inkser - a fairly desolate landscape. Entering Dearborn. Road narrows. Not too shabby. Road re-widens - the typical Detroit area 4-lane. Ford Taurus driving by a Ford building. Some vacant land and whatnot. Skyline - and yes, that is a bike lane to the right.
