Belle Isle

I'm back in my hometown of Detroit for a quick visit and every time I come back to the city, I see things that have changed since my last visit. I went to Belle Isle yesterday for a family picnic and the island looked great. The park has been taken over by the state now and that takeover has helped to rehab the area and clean it up. Visitors also get charged a fee to enter the park now, something that wasn't done when the city ran the park. But you need money to maintain the park so I understand why a fee is charged and I'm happy to pay it.
