Made In Detroit

Just home from the Kid Rock concert in Detroit. Headed to the concert with one of my best friends from childhood. Parker and I had a blast reminiscing about summer concerts at Pine Knob- which included underage drinking (mountain dew and vodka was our drink of choice but who are we kidding any beverage we could get our hands on worked), picking up random guys (with a strong preference for the preppy ones), hanging out in the parking lot to party and telling our parents we got stuck in traffic (got to love the no cell phone era circa 1990). Our other partner in crime from high school -Wendy bailed on the concert because of that annoying thing called a job (we missed you sorry you had to defend the law!) We had a blast people watching and jamming to Kid Rock songs- no mention of children or even husbands for that matter! So yes beer and an outdoor rock concert on a 70 degree Michigan night make for a great night.

70 degrees!! I know you're missing your pool, but enjoy that. It doesn't get that low down here anymore. It's HOT. Glad you are enjoying yourself and having some good times. Eric was talking about CJ the other day. Had to get out the globe again. I don't think he realizes how far and how long he'll be gone! We miss you guys!

Marina, you are too funny. I love these recaps of your days. I finally had to create an account, which was much easier than anticipated, so that I can say goodbye to you! It sounds like you are leaving tomorrow. Safe travels. Good luck with the flight. If it makes you feel any better, I'd rather be in your shoes than mine... We are attempting to take Brian and Nora for a visit to the Dietrichs in CA on a 5 1/2 hour (1 stop) Southwest flight in two weeks. Between nursing and crying outbursts, I'm not sure how this is going to happen! But it will be well worth it to see the Dietrichs. I'm already aching for a girls' weekend so let's start planning a girls' visit to see Marina in London!!! Safe travels. Love and miss you guys, Christy
