The BIG D on Thanksgiving Eve

Started a family tradition this year. From now on - we decided to spend Thanksgiving in Detroit.

On Thanksgiving Eve, we started the day by checking into the Marriott Renaissance located Downtown. From there, we strolled straight to the Detroit Beer Company.


The People Mover Porter is awesome!

Following dinner, we saw Irving Berlin's White Christmas.


The show was excellent!

Northwood's International Autoshow Part I

The wino was lucky enough to attend the Northwood International Auto Show a while back. The weather was very nice, and there were record crowds.

Runner up for Wino's wish list was the Bugatti Veyron:






The sign on this Ford GT says "don't touch"!




With all the high dollar newer models, I thought it would be fitting to end this post with a traditional truck that is freakin sweet!
