    New Zealand has NO SNAKES. I was 30 years old before I seen my first one. Very curious about them. They don't bother me at all, so - I can trade on snake wrangling if necessary.

    I’m guessing Telegraph to Michigan Ave, to Greenfield, to Warren, to Dequindre, to Forest, to E Grand, to Jefferson. Am I close? You should drop into the Henry Ford Museum while in town. You went right by it.

    Too many stories to tell - I hope I can remember them all. Heck of a week - 4 hours sleep each night between Sunday and Friday night.
