Here is my take on the sites of Grand Forks, ND

South East Michigan (41)

Places I've been when I in Michigan, Usually between Ann Arbor, Detroit & Novi areas.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's places you travel to (24)

Airports, parking, hotels, public transportation etc.

Conference call in San Diego (9)

I spent almost a week in San Diego for a long conference. These are the places I managed to get away to. Some of which were beyond my control

Chicago Area (8)

Places I went when I lived in Chicago

SoBe Standby's (31)

These are places you might find me, places I like to go in my hood! Most of them are reasonably priced....since I'm broke :)

Morning Glory (8)

These are my favorite places to grab breakfast in MIA

Adventures in MSP (13)

While living in the tundra, I imagine I will take a number of visits to the Twin cities to be in civilization again. These are places I popped in to regain some sanity.

Service me please! (52)

Here's a listing of various places I have been "serviced". For example dry cleaning, car wash and whatnot....get your mind out of the gutter!
