Been considering a tour --was going to take my wife on one this year (she's never seen MI's beauty) but put it off-- maybe I'll wait until MI votes in responsible leadership. The actuarial tables say I can put off a return visit for a few decades yet... maybe it'll be be a little more like "home" then, at least maybe a bit less decrepit than what it must be like today.
It really is a beautiful state. I enjoyed visiting my family there in August - the weather was truly lovely. Sadly, the signs of economic hardship are evident, and we saw some disrepair and distress. Nonetheless, I love Michigan.
Michigan is beautiful in the autumn...my favorite time of year here. It’s like three or four regions of the U.S. wrapped into one. A sunset on Lake Michigan is breathtaking.
Don’t put it off just because of Granny, oh, and just give Detroit a wide berth, then you’ll be fine.
Avoid Detroit and Flint.
And if you ever get to GR Hubby and I will be please to meet you and the Mrs. for dinner
Take her Up North in the fall. That’s always a nice area, and a whole different “state” than the people’s republic of Ann Arbor where I live.
