Dream Cruise

One of the great end-of-summer traditions in Southeast Michigan is the Woodward Dream Cruise. Car enthusiasts of all kinds flock to Woodward Avenue to see the impromptu parade of classic cars that meanders between Pontiac and 8 Mile. Halfway along the route, Reflections was open to visitors Friday evening and all day Saturday in the parking lot of Peabody's Restaurant in Birmingham. A special sign was created detailing the some of the well known residents of the many cemeteries along Woodward Avenue.

Our host for the day was Lynch Funeral Homes, a great supporter of the Reflections exhibit. They brought with them their pristine 1939 Packard hearse, so the car enthusiasts had a special treat. Pat even ran into a featured member of Reflections next to the Packard!

The folks at Peabody's were also operating a lift to give people a better view of the crowds and cars below, so we took the opportunity to get a good shot of the whole amazing scene.
