FLINT PART 2 AND WE GO BACK TO THE BRICKS!

A Detroit trip centered around finally going to the famous Woodward Dream Cruise held every August. The "Dream Cruise" was very spread out traveling through 9 townships, it is very hard to navigate because it is 16 miles long (that is 32 miles round trip!) , more on that later.
Filling the schedule I find Back to the Bricks although I never heard of it? 
It all happens the same week as the Dream Cruise, not sure of the politics or maybe it is less scattered and more cozy?
It all happens downtown on the main street restored with the old brick roadway amongst shops, restaurants and live music!

Yes the trophies are bricks!
We parked just outside the closed area and walked the street first and then pulled out some chairs and enjoyed the cars moving in and out. 
An eclectic grouping of cars would be an understatement! 

2000's meet the 1960's

Hey careful,never point a loaded weapon!
