GR

Grand Rapids is the best.
Does everyone feel this about their own city?

The view heading west on 196 early on a sunny fall morning is delightful. The sun is glinting off the blue glass Varnum building. The river is sparkling. O man. It's just great. The other day, at dusk, I was driving over the bridge on Fulton with the blue bridge to my left and the city, bathed in that evening glow, breath-taking. I experienced another phenomenal sunset on a run through East GR two days ago. Leaves everywhere. The sky bright pink.
The best view of my beloved city is heading east on 196 right there by Lake Michigan Drive. As it slightly descends, heading around that curve, and a panorama of the city is framed by the trees. Gosh, it's beautiful.
I've almost gotten into several accidents because I can't stop looking.
Mmmm. I love this city.
