Do you find yourself whipping out your camera and taking pictures wherever you go? Of course I'm luckier than most because I always have my camera bag with me in the basket of my mobility scooter, so I have no excuse not to use it. I know I've said this before but it bears repeating: It's now as if I see--truly SEE--through the viewfinder of my camera. If I don't take a picture of something it's as if I didn't really see it. Are you the same?
I took this photo at lunch on Tuesday after attending Aku Kadogo's Black Theater class at Wayne State University. The Cass Cafe is one of my favorite restaurants, and my feelings are shared by many students and faculty. They have a walnut lentil burger to die for. Yum!! They also have rotating exhibits of wonderfully original, often funky, art on the walls. On your next trip to Detroit, be sure to put the Cass Cafe on your "must see" list!
Speaking of which, here's a heads-up call to all lovers of electronic music. Movement 08, Detroit's Electronic Music Festival, is happening May 24-26, America's Memorial Day weekend. It is AWESOME!!!
