I'm proud to be from the great state of Michigan. I've lived in the Mitten several different times throughout my life spending time in all corners of it. My journeys took me up and down the Lake Michigan coast, out east to explore Detroit and Ann Arbor, and to the dense forests of the UP.
Before writing with Only In Your State, I worked as a local TV news reporter and anchor, most recently in South Bend. Many of the stories I covered took place in Southwest Michigan. My roots are even deeper in the Wolverine State as I often head to Kalamazoo to visit family.
When I'm not out exploring nature, I'm avidly watching sports. I specifically have a deep love for the Michigan Wolverines (my alma mater), and I get to write about them and several other Big Ten teams as and editor for Athlon Sports. I also love to enjoy the great outdoors with my wife and our dog, Piper.
I'm excited to share all my favorite Michigan destinations with you. Keep exploring.
Folks often feel nostalgic about the Wild West from what they’ve seen in movies and on TV. While living the actual cowboy lifestyle might not be for everyone, their recipes live on in a variety of ways. Thankfully, there are restaurants that take their inspiration from the Old West and elevate it for modern palates. No place in Michigan does this better than the White Horse Inn in Metamora.
The White Horse Inn takes its dining experience just as seriously as it takes its menu. There are so many ways to enhance your meal, whether that’s in one of their luxury igloos or during their holiday light display. The restaurant is also in a beautiful rural area that’s perfect for a family camping trip. Explore more possibilities by making this part of your next RV adventure.
