MEMORIES OF THE PENOBSCOT BUILDING IN DETROIT
Albert Kahn designed the Penobscot Building Detroit from Cobo Rooftop
I used to have a friend who managed the Penobscot and we used to have lunch or drinks whenever I worked at Cobo Hall down the street...
Kathie Binienda Helsel My dad delivered mail there for many years. I got to go along with him from time to time. I was in awe of it then and now.
Karen Wood Got my allergy shots there every week as a kid in the early 60's. Remember seeing JFKennedy driving in a convertible with his entourage through Detroit in 1960 as we came out of the building. Brings back so many memories. Beautiful building!
Judith Below-Goodman My favorite building downtown, the Collanade downstairs......so many memories with my great Grandma..!!!

Wilson Pickett and Jimi Hendrix -May 5 1966
This was at an Atlantic Records party to launch Percy Sledges' 'When A Man Love A Woman' album, with Cornell Dupree behind Wilson.
Pickett is in top form, backed by guitar-slinger Hendrix, who gives no clue of the counter-culture hero he would become in a mere few months..By the end of the year Jimi was in London getting Experienced.

THE MOON: INTUITION AND UNDERSTANDING
THE MOON appears in a reading when you are not sure of your destination, or even of the path you are travelling but you travel nonetheless. You may have lost your way and are now left to walk in the dark, guided only by your inner light and intuition. You need to go on without a clear picture of where you are, where you are going or where you have been.
The Moon is a card of intuition and psychic forces, so let go of your conscious mental blocks or negative self-talk, and allow your intuition to guide you. Your dreams, intuitions, and inner promptings lead you forward toward higher levels of understanding if you listen carefully and use your judgement to help interpret the veiled messages of the unconscious. Not only will the way forward be revealed but in many cases you will learn lessons about yourself that will be valuable in later journeys.

THE STAR: INSPIRATION AND HOPE
The Star card suggests that my alter ego today is the Goddess, whose superpower for rising to the occasion lies in my innate ability for inspiration. I will pursue my dreams and what makes me happy -- life's too short. I will allow time for me today. I may even get my fifteen minutes of fame by seeking recognition from others and striving to sparkle in the limelight. I am immortal! Sometimes it's better to burn out than just fade away. Find your cosmic groove, and go for it!
The Star Tarot card brings renewed hope and faith and a sense that you are truly blessed by the Universe at this time. Courage, fulfillment, and inspiration are in your life. You are entering a loving phase in your life, filled with calm energy, mental stability and deeper understanding of both yourself and others around you. This card is saying to you that, over the long-term, you should have faith and trust in the Universe. A better future is waiting for you but in order to reach it you must trust that it is indeed possible.
