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.
The State of Michigan is filled with beautiful drives and trails. It’s hard to imagine that all of them are just part of the state we live in. Some parts of Michigan are so stunning, that it’s hard to believe. One of the places I’ve spent most of my time is gorgeous no matter what time of year.
I often take myself up to Northwest Michigan, around Traverse City, when I need to get away from it all. When I have a chance, I’ll pull over and take in the beautiful countryside or lakefront. Some of these stops are so beautiful, it feels like they were pulled straight out of a Paul Cezanne painting.
If you’ve ever wanted to fully immerse yourself in beautiful landscape painting, you might want to consider a trip up to Traverse City. Some of the natural wonders here are only imaginable in the mind of a world-renowned artist, but you can see how real the beauty is for yourself in person.
Northwest Michigan can be magical all year round. I suggest staying several days to truly experience all the area has to offer. As I said before, there are several charming accommodations in the area that make for a perfect home base for all your nature activities.
