I live in Indiana and have never heard of it. They should show more pics of Detroit after the great migration.

Former Army buddy lives near Detroit and talks about how bad it has become. I do know other parts are great. Have another army bud that lives in the UP snd says the summers are great. I do know that the shroom season out there is said to be great. Do any mushroom gathering?

I have seen a couple on M outdoors I don't watch much TV so I don't know how much they are playing it. 40 miles west of Chicago here.
I dream of a day when chickens can cross the road without having their motives questioned.
