June is finally seeing the sun and I am feeling the warm air. Eastern Market is all the rage and the activity in the city is at an all-time high since I\u2019ve moved downtown. It is truly wonderful to see so many people roll in for Slow Roll, smell the food trucks while out on lunch breaks, hear musicians busking on the street, and have the sun shine on my shoulders. I have loved Detroit since before I moved here, but this summer is really putting my senses to the test in the best way.<\/p>\n
