ROD's Summer Trip To Michigan (2011) - Part VI DAY 7: Sunday Musings / More Detroit Streets / Canton Kids & Detroit Kids Are A Treasure!!!

Okaaayy... this pictorial is the last part of my summer trip to Michigan...

The first 4 pictures were taken Sunday afternoon in Detroit, the day before I left on Monday, August 1st, 2011. We all decided to take a group shot in front of the house, and the rest were other pics of me just doing my thing...
