"From the Renaissance. It's a great idea!"

Lisa Ann and I will be moving to Novi, Michigan on July 2, 2006. It's a super nice little place about 25 miles Northwest of Detroit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Novi,_Michigan

Check it out if you care. It's an "affluent" community. I'll be working in the Rennaissance Center in downtown Detroit for Mercer Human Resource Consulting where I will be a Communications Analyst.

See the big buildings right next to the river? That's the Renaissance Center. I think I will be working in one of the smaller buildings just below the bigger ones. Still one of the round ones. This is a picture of downtown Detroit.

If you care, basically most who work in Detroit leave town and live elsewhere. That will be Lisa and I as well. While the median income in Detroit is roughly $35,000, the median income in Novi is roughly $71,000. Thus Detroit gets a bad rep, because all the money is leaving. Still they are working to revitalize the downtown. Towards the left side of the picture (across the river) is Canada.

Here's something: Lisa and I made it home in 3 hours and 45 minutes including a gas stop on Saturday night. Basically the same as Chicago at that point!
