Detroit gets a bad rep but it seems like a nice enough place, used to work with some festivals that ran right across the river from The GM building, and the best part was always getting to see that glimmering skyline across the river + got a few folks who would come over.

Oh my goodness.. Not sure if those migrations don't happen as much in East Texas, or my aunt and uncle were trying to shield the news from me, but it sounds terrifying, I dealt with one mid sized recluse spider and stayed inside for the rest of the week.

And that sounds like a reasonable move, and a nice way to travel if you know what your doing, my Dad is a truck driver and camping was just never something we had time for, though would like to try it some day.
