I had started my electronics training at RETS that was located at East Grand Blvd & Mt Elliot back in 1976. Miss the days of the Bob-Lo boats & when Vernors was still made in Detroit & had attended the grand opening day for Ren-Cen. Back then, I was living in St. Clair Shores between 9 & 10 Mile on the Jefferson end.
