    Having 30 cars rotting in your yard does NOT make you a collector. If its sinking in the dirt, sell it or grab a wrench.

    Metro Beach
    A very special place to go in Metro Detroit on Lake St. Clair.
    Rode bicycles to there in the 60's from Roseville.
    Still do, though from closer in. It is still free admission that way.
    Never dreamed they would ever let anyone park any car like that out there.
