Motor City Memories
Back in 1924, Detroit seemed like a faraway big city in the "frozen north" to my dad and me. We were living in a sleepy little town in the rolling hills of southeastern Missouri on the banks of the beautiful Current River. My mother had died two years earlier, and Daddy and I had gone there to live with his mother, an energetic 60-year-old.
