Girls weekend away!


I went to Detroit with a couple of friends of mine for the weekend. I grew up in Michigan, but have never been in downtown Detroit before. What a sad, messed up city. Extremely run down and in many places just totally abandoned. One of the only cities I have ever been in where there are abandoned skyscapers in the skyline. Very sad and messed up. Anyways, besides that, we had a good time. Liza is from Puerto Rico, and she is loads of fun. Carissa is from Detroit and we play volleyball together and hang out all the time. We all have a good time together.


Carissa, her sister, Timeri, and I. We were laughing hysterically, because every picture we took Carissa's eyes were closed!



Finally one with her eyes OPEN! lol


We laughed at Liza because she was so cold. As we were walking to our car, we couldn't find it for a minute, but when we did she squealed and ran to it as fast as she could! She was not prepared for a cold Michigan night!



The three amigos!

Sad about Detroit--last time I was there was several years ago when I went to watch the Tigers play. We didn't sight-see (you know my dad). We went straight to the ballpark and got out afterward.

Aren't you glad you weren't watching Ashley when she encountered the dog??

yeah, speculation my the police says that one of the reasons detriot is a hell hole is because of the casinos coming in. makes sense if you ask me.
