I enjoy the Great Lakes, small lakes, abundant nature, back roads, small towns, big cities, and sports that our unique state has. I like to share pictures of interesting things I see beyond where the pavement ends. I appreciate when others post pictures or thoughts of the cool moments they experience in every day life. All photos are mine unless noted.
