It's been alternating between snow flurries and sunshine, we're locked in the deep freeze. I'm all busy being over winter. Sure, next thing you know, I'll be embracing the snow and cold. Probably multiple times in the same day. Thought I share things that I find interesting about the mitten state and post a few of them here. First there's that cool thing of always carrying a map of the state in one's hands. Ask a Michigan resident where they live and they'll point to their palm.
Starting the linked video below. Next up will be some other neat things happening in the D. From there maybe a quick diversion to the U.P. That's the Upper Peninsula of Michigan for those of you who live too far away to know what we're talking about when we say UP.
For now, let's start in Detroit. It's the city folks think of when you say Michigan. The entire cities of Boston and San Francisco, as well as Manhattan fit in the LAND area of the City of Detroit. Those cities have over 3 million residents, Detroit is under a million today.
To keep it seasonal I'll start it off with a video that you've possibly already watched. Shows some of the underbelly of what was once a great city.
Hope you enjoy.
