Roger that. I want to take the big trip all the way around Lake Michigan to the north over the Mackinaw bridge to Wisconsin....I haven't done that yet. I was going to do that last time I saw you in Detroit but we had a hell of a snow storm when we left you so I decided to take the southern route around Chicago.

Lots of places in MI that I'd love to see for the first time!

Just kidding! I like it up there as well.I Went to Quebec once for a conference, in October. Great food and history! My wife and I got into a taxi, and the driver began to sing the French national anthem as loud as he could. It was humorous.

Hey!!!!!!

Agreed Matt! I still need to make it north of the bridge! I've seen a lot of the lower through my life but only gazed upon the u.p.

I was born and raised in the Detroit area and love Michigan,....... from May to September.
The UP rivals anywhere in America for natural beauty.

Three years ago Ellie and I traveled from Alabama, up through Minnesota and into the Mich UP at Iron City, in our 65 Coronet 500 convertible. We toured the entire UP for days, crossed the big bridge and traveled south along Lake Michigan, attended a family 4th of July party and traveled back home. In all we covered 3600 miles in 10 days, all on US hwy's and secondary roads. The top was down the entire way. A once in a lifetime trip.

The winters chased me away. As the bones got older the harsh temps, snow, ice and cabin fever became to much to bear. Here in Alabama we get about 6 weeks of winter and I'm thinking I didn't go far enough south.... LOL?
