Welcome back to Kirtland Community College. I am honored to serve as editor for the Winter 2007 semester. Happy New Year to everyone. I hope it's the best year yet.

What did everyone do for New Year's?
For New Year's I went to Detroit. I was born in Detroit and grew up there. Back in the late 70s, Detroit was not the best place to be growing up, but I loved it anyhow. My family and I lived in Pole Town, Hamtramck area.
This December, I was shocked when I took a tour of down town Detroit before New Year's. I have never seen the Detroit River look so clear. The businesses are getting built back up, and there are residents moving into $200,000 and $300,000 condos. The stadiums are back in Detroit for football, and baseball, finally. There are little shops going up for clothing and trinkets. I am very impressed that the Motor City, Motown, Michigan's largest city is being reconstructed. This is long over due. I would love to hear what you all think about D-Town coming back to life.
While in Detroit, New Year's Eve, I spent time with family and friends. I had the largest crab legs I have ever eaten in my life. Yum. We all rang in the New Year with hugs and kisses. Someone tried to slip me the tongue, just kidding, cleaned up, and went to bed. I came back home on New Years day and was just as happy to be home as I was to leave.
