Michigan is an awesome state to live in all year long. The summers in Michigan are beautiful with all of the inland lakes and the Great Lakes. There are so many different things to do on the water and inland too. Getting out to some of the beautiful inland areas of Michigan are fun for hiking and plenty of other activities.

Fall starts when it wants to in Michigan. According to many (not me), fall starts with the arrival of pumpkin spice flavoring. We are a week into fall officially for 2022. Fall came in warm this year with highs in the mid-70s, close to 80 degrees. When 9/22/22 came, so did the cooler fall temperatures.
