This evening after enjoying happy hour cocktails with The Good Dr. Long downtown Ann Arbor we stumbled upon a little classic car show. It was not too busy out, so we were able to enjoy some really beautiful gems on display. The interesting thing is that I’m not a car enthusiast at all but the […]
Last night I attended the Urban Organic Eric Roberson performance at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History & enjoyed one helluva show.
