Detroit Moxie's Weekend Roundup
Wednesday, January 6, 2010 at 11:38PM | Becks Davis You know how I usually start the Weekend Roundup with a paragraph about something or other? Well, today I’ve got nothing.
Except, that I’m guessing we’re going to hear something along the lines of “the first snow storm of the decade” being bantered about in the media. Come on people, it’s Michigan, we’re used to this.
I am slightly worried that the husband will be driving home in “the first snow storm of the decade” from Ann Arbor. He’s not from around these parts and isn’t used to driving in snow.
In other news, did you know that Detroit is second in the nation in the sale of fishing rods? Weird.
The Dequindre Cut, just add snow.
