This was fun, in spite of the rain. I failed to get the "Pirate Memo" in all this, though. Several young guys on the Red bus were dressed as pirates. Really good costumes -- maybe they were actors from the School for the Arts?

We ate supper at Glass City Cafe during a poetry reading, stopped in a gift store on St. Clair, and bought some art supplies at Art Supply Depo. During the bus trip, I could see there were a few other places we could have had a good meal (or a few drinks).

I enjoyed seeing how many offices and buildings have been rehabbed for artistic or professional purposes. I have seen some real improvements in the warehouse district area over the past 5 years. There are many buildings that look like a happening place to work (and possibly, to live).
