My grandfather, Verne McFarlane, died in 1979, but he is never far from my thoughts. So it meant a lot to me when one of his old friends, Gordon Snowden, came to the Teardown: Memoir of a Vanishing City reading in Traverse City tonight. It was a reminder of all the great friendships forged in the Vehicle City over the years. And a reminder of everything my grandpa did for me and my family. Here's a photo of the two Gordons.
Two Flint Expatriates — Michael Perry and Gordon Snowden — discuss the Vehicle City at Horizon Books. Great to finally get a chance to meet Michael and his wife, Linda, after getting to know them online over the past few years.
No Luigi's, no Coneys, no Haloburger....... you must be back in San Francisco. :-)
