being in town is more exciting, traffic everyday, and (my favorite) seeing the local police/fire dept in action every other day, sometimes at my apartment, sometimes just a siren heard only wailing down the road somewhere close to my apartment as i used to live in Barbeau Mi.

Great place. I have a buddy that lives there they keep it up to date and used to live there as a child still doing the same old as it was many years ago. One problem, the people a lot of the times I smell pot that has a window right in front of the playground where the kids play. And other times there is this guy in a wheelchair that occasionally just throw his and empties his feces on the ground. But I heard he’s getting out of there to another location.
