Interviews

I got some very good interviews for my paper the other day. I talked to the owner of Oasis Golf Center, the driving range dome that i am writing about and he told me all about how the structure of the dome it setup. Also, he told me how the dome stays inflated and not floats away. I learned how the mechanics of the entire dome work and how ingenious of a system it is. He also told about some times when the dome almost exploded or colapsed which was really interesting.

Neighborhood

I was driving in my neighborhood the other day and i started to look around and see different things about my neighborhood. I realized that my neighborhood is very unique. Even though the houses are older, every house is unique and they are all not made in the same style. Also, i realized that we have no street lights and an unusual great amount of trees in our neighborhood which makes it look very nice with all the snow and ice on the trees. Also, i do not see alot of wildlife though in our neighborhood expect for the occasional deer that travel through.

New Detroit Campaign

I think that this is a good campaign but it has some downfalls. The old english D seems very "cool" to alot of young people and i do not know that this D will attract the young crowd. this campaign i think will influence alot of people to come down, but i feel that some of the younger people will get turned away because it almost seems like they are changing the D. the old english D is a mark of our history and i do not think we should forget that. Full story here.

Paper

I was researching for my paper and found out some good information. I found out that the driving range dome that i am writing about is in the top ten in the nation for golf domes. Also, the driving raange is in the top 100.

Detroit 2

I was thinking about my last post on the renovation of Detroit and decided to do some research on the renovation of Detroit. I found a site that explained the renovation of the Book-Cadiallac Hotel.
I think that if we keep doing projects like these, we will be able to get Detroit back to what it was. Even though it will take time, i think Detroit will be able to get back to where it was back in the day.

Detroit

I was down in Detroit the other day for the auto show and i decided to look around and see how things were progressing since the super bowl. I came to the conclusion that things are surprisingly staying better than i thought. it was enjoyable to go down and visit Detroit. It was degrading a little bit since the super bowl but not to the extent that i thought. It was still clean and presentable and there are some areas being renovated and really starting to turn Detroit around.
