Happy Birthday Grand Rapids! 162!

That's alot of candles! As a Facebook Friend said, "You don't look a day over 160!" Ha! I wonder what Larry King thinks about all this. Since he was just a boy when GR became a city, he can relate to what the world was like back in 1850. No Motor cars, not a single luxury, like Robinson...oh wait--thats something else! ;)

Here's a little story from WZZM on the occasion. I wonder why this isnt a slightly bigger deal. Considering all the things we celebrate these days, the city's birthday could rank right up there. I'd like my cake chocolate please...
