Detroit Institute of Art

We went to the Detroit Institute of Art on Saturday.today. It's the first time any of us have been there, and it was really great. I know Detroit gets a bad rap for the economy and crime and so on, but they have first-rate museums and other attractions. We went to the Detroit Science Center a few years ago, and it was terrific.

I encourage everyone to go for a visit. Their collections include Picasso, Rembrandt, Degas, Matisse, and a whole bunch of people you've never heard of. There are suits of armor, Greek pottery, furniture, modern art installations that had us scratching our heads, and a cafeteria with a salad bar.

Here are a few pictures from our trip:
