Michigan Avenue

09 May 2012 157
Gave my pocket camera to my brother yesterday afternoon, so this turned out to be the last photo I took with the Cybershot. Not bad, I think. I'd just left the Lansing ballyard and was walking down Michigan Avenue. That's the State Capitol at the end of the road, of course. There's something good about leaving the ballpark and seeing that dome in the distance. The tall building's Boji Tower; the large building down the sidewalk on the right is Lansing Center, an exhibition hall. Bye, camera. I'll miss y'.

Firefighter Cabbies Revisited

Back to where this sequence began: Martin Sernstinger caught my father (Roger Dinda), Fred Stone, and Sam Garrison waiting for a fare at Yellow's cabstand on Michigan Avenue, next to Michigan News, in Kalamazoo, Michigan. It's 1955 and Michigan was still a two-way street. You have to assume the city wasn't paying these fellows a living wage. Last photo in the set, folks, unless I locate some others. Thanks for looking in.
