Anyone from michigan?

My wife is from Standish, and we bought our Town Sedan from a person in Orchard Lakes while on a trip there.
 
Went to high school in Warren, where I bought my A, then college in Ypsi and NY, then back to Ypsi to teach, then to Kalamazoo for retirement.
 
grew up in Warren (practically next to the GM Tech Center), but the family moved to the Los Angeles area right as I would have been starting high school (at Charles S. Mott)
 
What year? I went to Warren high Class of 67 Lived in Mason Mi most of my life Retired to Missouri in 2002

Fitzgerald, class of 1961. When the 2010 Roundup was in Troy, I drove my Ford back to its old stomping grounds. Revisited my home and school. The last time it had been there was before we moved in 1963. Took a picture at school and with Ford parked in the same spot beside our house that it was in in my avatar in 1962.

I worked at the Tech Center in summer of 1965. By then, the Ford was put up for its long sleep in Grandma's garage in Ohio, and I was driving my new Rambler convertible.

I'm not from MI. Central Indiana, but I've traveled though some of MI. You have a beautiful state. I bought my 31 Tudor from a guy in China Twp last year. I love it. I plan to go to the Gilmore Museum this year. Anyone know when it will be open with displays? I wonder if they will let me drive inside the grounds and take a picture parked in front of the new Model A building?
