    I cannot thank you enough for posting this. I was born and raised in Michigan. I left when I was 20. I come back every now and then, as I still have family there but I have been gone for too long and I miss my Home state! I live in CA now, and we just don't have winter like this at all. So beautiful! So natural...so elemental! Michigan will always be in my heart!

    As much as I hate to admit it, but I love winter. I hate driving home during a snow storm with no plow out. I dislike constantly shoveling snow. But, I love being out by myself on my snowshoes, and listening to the wind in the pine trees. And I love that first sign of spring. Or mid March, or later, when the locks open for the ships.
