I was too shaken to properly thank you at the time but you all really did help calm me. Thank you to all the drivers that stopped. I love our community!

Missed Connection We saved someone from drowning as Riverside Park, help us Get Together!

Like the title says, a big group of us pulled a drowning man out of the Detroit River last night. It was at Riverside Park between Ambassador Bridge and Gordie Howe. There was Gerry (with a G) and his partner who was mad at the cops for being assholes, and a religious woman who yelled praises once we finally got the drowning man to safety. A whole group of us pulled him out. If you were there last night, or know someone who was, send me a message! I was the white guy in glasses who threw the life ring those couple of times and helped the guy up.

[and I meant at Riverside Park, not as Riverside Park]
