Barbara Sutton, 83, puffed on a cigarette and drank a coffee and sparkling water at a local Detroit watering hole in the Cass Corridor. Don't let appearances fool you, she is spirited and young at heart, and anything but a shut-in. As recently as three years ago she traveled to Italy and stayed in a youth hostel.

"I've lived in Detroit my whole life. I've never lived in the suburbs. That's not my kind of thing."
