Next year is shaping up to have more people, then.
There's at least one other furriner hoping to come next year too.
Of course if you're going to bother flying all that way, you may as well make a holiday of it. There's room at my house if you need a place to sleep in Michigan.

Look out, might take you up on that :)
Many thanks for the offer. Since I'd be flying in the peak period it'd probably be sensible to take advantage of some reasonably priced accomodation. Heck, I know how to cook and clean - I can contribute :)

Although... not sure what the itinerary would be...
It is the Detroit area, after all... so, we could go get mugged, run over, and then arrested for disturbing the peace!
There's always the Windsor Ballet, I guess. ;-)

'salright, wouldn't trouble you for long.
I go by the old adage 'After three days, fish and houseguests begin to smell'. :)
Ballet? Ah, I get it, you're trying to keep me away from Detroit, right? (It's working...) :-)

Er, well...
The [link|http://www.columbuswired.net/Columns/Sirk/Windsor_061303.htm|Windsor Ballet] isn't exactly... ballet... of a sort, I guess.
Seriously though, there's the [link|http://www.detroitsymphony.org/|symphony], an [link|http://www.motopera.org/|opera house] (where [link|/forums/render/content/show?contentid=153568|I saw] the Magic Flute with my son), a very nice [link|http://www.dia.org/|art museum], the [link|http://www.henryfordmuseum.com/|Henry Ford Museum], and other things that I'm sure I've forgotten since I live here.

The Henry Ford especially...
One of my favorite places to go, along with Greenfield Village.

OK, having looked up Windsor Ballet...
allow me to rephrase my previous comment.
Windsor Ballet? Ah, I get it, you're trying to keep me away from Detroit Canada, right? :)
Ta for linking that article - Steve Sirk's a good writer!
