I just found out that my new home is a five minute walk from a place called King Boring Field.
No Joke. Doesn't that sound like someone asked a six year old to name the place?
After searching on the internet for a while, I discovered that C. King Boring was a Dearbornite and the owner of the Detroit Gems basketball team, who played for one year with that name and eventually became the LA Lakers.
Continuing to read about Dearborn, I learned that it may be the only city that owns land in another state. We own an apartment complex in Florida. How extremely odd.
