I could go on and on. Someday I'm going to get a nice camera and photograph the shit out of Michigan City.
 
I was seriously thinking of starting a tnhread like this the other day, but I didn't because I'm lazy.


Anyway, the town I grew up in is small, and has nothing of real interest, and the town I live in now is even smaller and absolutely no photos exist on google except for a few real estate pics, so you'll have to either wait for me to take some pics or just imagine a large rural town with only 1000 people and 1 roundabout, unlike Dan Smee's ACT which has more roundabouts than people :D

My childhood home, over 100 year old farmhouse in the city, was the original house on that square mile block, now dilapidated and foreclosed.

The Calder statue thingy. I guess this is like our mascot or whatever. I don't really "get it", never have.

The BOB (Big Old Building) - several floors of restaurants, pubs, and clubs. Sometimes I go there to see U2 tribute bands.
