Kentuckians guide to Detroit pt. 10

This is the motor city, if you hint that you have somehow forgotten that, you will be quickly reminded. But the notion that a vehicle is the only way of getting around Detroit is slowly, and steadily becoming dismantled.

In the Spring of 2017 bike rental service, called MOGO, started up […]

A Kentuckian’s guide to Detroit Pt. 9 – A lesson in hand-based cartography.

Michiganders are a hearty, versatile bunch. Michigan is a classic state possessing confident, endearing Midwestern values that prides itself on its capabilities of simply getting shit done and being hilariously helpful, and nice, in the process. Yeah, they can be a bit off, but that’s no bother, when you grow up in Kentucky, you’ve witnessed every shade of weird.

One of […]

1-  Belle Isle, for everything.

A Kentuckian’s guide to Detroit pt. 5- Polish food? Fried? I’m in!

 

This is a shoe-in topic for my Southern friends — fried food.

Hell. This is about holiday based entirely on fried food.

And also, as this story evolves, fried food stuffed with a completely different type of food. A Southerners dream. To combine otherwise un-combinable fried foods is an act of culinary genius, and casual insanity. This […]

A Kentuckian’s guide to Detroit pt. 4 – Taking a walk in Detroit.

I recently went on a walk in Detroit with my camera and a few thousand friends.

‘A Kentuckian’s guide to Detroit pt.3 – International Edition: A Kentuckians guide to Canada’. 

I recently took a day trip into the wild lands of Canada. While I can’t be certain, I can say with some conviction that I believe I am the first Kentuckian to ever visit Canada*. And, because I’m just such a stand-up guy, I’m going to share some interesting thoughts and experiences, so if any […]

-There will […]
