Nice day for us too….we went to the Focus Hope Christmas concert in Detroit…fundraiser for the project which has been going since 1969 to help educate and train disadvantaged kids in the area for jobs. One of our friends, who just lost his father a couple of weeks ago, was playing and we felt like we wanted to support him right now. The concert was great, the money is for a good cause, and our friend was grateful…can’t ask for more.
