Farewell To HockeyTown
Alas … my time here in Detroit Rock City has come to an end. It seems like David’s and my week here flew by in an instant … but we did have a great time. The trip had its highs (namely Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals at the Joe Louis Arena last Saturday and our day with Nine Inch Nails at Pine Knob last Sunday) and some lows (namely Games 3 and 4 of the aforementioned Stanley Cup Finals) but this trip was pretty spectacular. Here are a few pics from our small gathering of friends who came over to Sarah and Mark’s place last night to hang out on our last day in town:

Last night was really fun … it was great seeing everyone who came out (Tracey, Zakiya, Reggie, Tara, Agnes, Angi, Ben, Jeff, Mike G and Roger) and I will miss you all — ’til I get my ass back to Detroit in August for Tori Amos ;) While I’m very bummed that the Detroit Red Wings lost last night, I’m confident the Red Army just wants to make sure they win the Stanley Cup here in Detroit!! Go Wings!!
And so … our trip is pretty much dunzo. We finish work this afternoon, grab some food and then hit the friendly skies. I hear it’s been rainy and cold in LA this week, so glad that Michigan graced us with some damn beautiful weather. I love you Detroit, see you again real soon!!

That picture of David and Zakiya hugging is adorable. The expression on her face says pure heaven.

I was at Mellon last night on the lawn, there were supposedly 10,000 people there and I was in the fifth row; one of the most amazing experiences of my life. There were two Detroit fans right up by the Tron, giving everyone a hard time and then halfway through the first period they were m.i.a. they held their own though. I even got to see the Detroit bus after the game, as it sped past everyone.

OMG Zakiya is freaking adorable!!!! Have a safe trip home.
I have one other thing to say:
GO PENGUINS GO!!!!!
My prediction is 7 games going into overtime and Crosby will score the winning goal!!!

I love the picture of David and Pincess Z it’s adorable
June 5th, 2009 at 2:35 pm
Sorry trent, but the wings are going down! I agree with Jenn in BC, but instead of Crosby I think it will be Malkin, GO PENS!!

….maybe you and David should adopt a little girl. It sure seems to suit you guys :)

Don’t worry about the Wings Trent, it’s tough when the opposing team scores on a clear offsides. The Red Wings will keep the cup in Detroit. They are the better team and they deserve it!

That picture of David & Z should be enlarged and hung above your sofa right beside the one of you and Z in yesterday’s post. :) C U T E!
