I just returned from spending the morning in downtown Flint, Michigan. Yes, you read that correctly. Downtown Flint Michigan. Today is the last day of the Flint Festival of Quilts, all located in buildings downtown Flint. Downtown Flint is undergoing a big renovation – and for the first time in I don’t know how long, I felt pretty safe being downtown… and by myself!
If you know the Flint area, you probably remember the rundown Berridge Hotel on Garland Street where the drunks, wine-o’s and derelicts hung out. Well, it’s gorgeous now!!! It has been turned into beautiful loft apartments, and they are stunning.
