One good memory lane experience of this business trip was encountering the random but familiar street names and town names which I have encountered decades ago…

Road names like Telegraph Woodward Grand River felt like roads were waving to me ๐Ÿ™‚

Yes humans live from the past memories…so drove to Ann Arbor to fill my stomach with real memory food from Zingermann’s on the way to airport
