Good Morning MCF


Above picture is taken from the CBC-Windsor tv station's webcam. (hopefully picture is working for you)
They obviously forgot to change their clock for daylight savings time.
It was actually 7:14 am when the picture was taken.

That is looking at the western end of the Detroit skyline. Not much in that view. One of the buildings is the Detroit USPS building.

Good Mornin `Lou,
Do you go to Detroit much ? or cross the border into the USA ?
Is there a check point to enter & return ? Do they check you for a passport, etc ? Are Space Aliens permitted in2 Canada, or am I the only one that's not permitted LOL

Hope you get a day `off soon...Wish you and reader's a great `day....~>EnJoy your `Present : )

Hey Space!

No, I don't get there too often, unfortunately. Only for special occasions like sporting events and such.

Here's a different live shot of this morning's skyline. It's really bad quality though. Sorry.



The group of builings on the right is GM World Headquarters.
It's the 3 black buildings with the silver tower behind the middle one.


I'm not sure how good the forum is for live streaming video, so I'll post a link of this next one instead.


It's a live traffic camera of the Detroit/Windsor tunnel entrance in Detroit.
There's a camera on the Canadian side also, but this view is a little more interesting.
Note the church on the left side of the picture.
That is the mariner's church. It's the church mentioned in the song, "Wreck of The Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot.
I don't expect you to know the song. It's really old.

Space, here's a look at the place I work. It's a still picture taken a while ago.

Space, thanks for changing to a smaller picture.
I resized the original picture, and I'm attaching it below. The above picture is nice, but it doesn't show the entire complex. Only half. The attached picture shows the entire complex with both towers.

...That looks like a superFun place to work, or maybe just visit : ) (I replaced your pic because it was to large : ( Hope I did good : )

I really liked the live/vid cam ~> Lots of traffic there, and is that a mono-Rail there ? I can't wait to explore North America on my future Dream `Road Trip...Thanks for sharing your area...I love it when member's make post of the area they are from and drive their Monte Carlo's : )
