What's "The Thumb"?

One of the most agreeable towns I've ever been in was Spooner, Wisc. -- back in 1960. I was very favorably impressed and asked my dad, who was driving, if we couldn't move there. It was a picket-fence paradise.

I'd like to see more of northern California and maybe the northern Rockies. Also, upstate Michigan, upstate New York, upstate New Hampshire.

"The Thumb" is part of Michigan and refers to the mitten shape of the state. Largely rural area. Bordered by Lake Huron to the North, Lake Huron and St Clair River to the east, and Saginaw Bay to the West.
