			<description><![CDATA[This would be M32 up north, west of Gaylord and west of US131.
ArchBlogger's always loved the 15 miles or so between 131 and East Jordan. The winding, two-lane road turns surprisingly hilly, even for northern Michigan, and passes a number of itsy-bitsy crossroads with cool old vernacular]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Here's a modest proposal: We shouldn't tear Detroit's old train station down, as our perpetually misguided City Council (and -- ahem! -- another Detroit newspaper) wants. Instead, somebody should illuminate the great tower at night.

			<description><![CDATA[As has been noted, ArchBlogger has finally mastered -- manfully, he would like to say -- the art of the tripod and the shutter-release delay. This has enabled him to tackle a longtime ambition: nighttime photogaphy.

			<description><![CDATA[ArchBlogger has lately mastered the tripod and the time-release shutter mechanism on his digital SLR. It's been sort of a slow learning curve.
This new skill lured him into the Fisher Building this past Saturday, up to the third floor overlook that rings the lobby. One is familiar with how]]></description>

He spent a good long time with the Fisher Building, and then camped in his car at Cass and Charlotte, where there's a particularly good vista on the towers along the river.
