Motor City Wine Madness!
Detroit! D-Town, Rock City, The Big 3-1-3! Le détroit du Lac Erie (meaning 'the strait between Lake Erie and Lake Huron) was founded by the French, nicked by the British, attacked by Indians under Chief Pontiac, ceded to the US under the Jay treaty, burnt to the ground by the British, and named Paris of the West in the 1800's, and is one of the winningest sports cities in America. Whew!
I'm here today to do another fabulous Limited Edition speaking engagement. After all that tumultuous history, I think they can stand me droning on for an hour or so. I'm very pleased by the great weather I'm seeing here--I had to check twice to see if I was in Michigan or Florida.
When I'm done here, it's off to Indianapolis, to see some more folks and visit my pal Anita, which is always a treat.
Tally-ho!
