Hey everyone! I wanted to see how many Michigan folks we have on here. Group get-togethers are a lot of fun, so I figured I would plant the seed. I am from the metro Detroit area. 
How many of you are from Michigan?

I'm not from Michigan but I do love the state. My parents have a summer home in Frankfort, which is about 45 minutes West of Travers City. I've been going up there, during the summer, for the past 40 years. Beautiful place.
Ex-wife and two ex-coaches are in Michigan...you couldn't pay me enough to admit it if I were from there, which I am not

It's great to see such a presence on here whether you're affiliated with MI or live here. Thank you all for responding. I look forward to meeting some of you in the future!

Those are some familiar places! I am sure you are glad you got out when you did. We can only hope that a new Governor will help speed things up around here.
I grew up and spend the first 18 years of my life in Lowell, Michigan (right outside Grand Rapids). Spent many a summer at my Uncle's cabin on Clam lake, about 25 miles north west of Traverse City. Loved it there. I left Michigan to go to college. Now I live wherever the Air Force tells me to reside.

That's fantastic! Thank you for your service! I love the Grand Rapids area and would love to be out there more often. It's about a 3 hour drive from me now, but it's well worth it!
I'm a 'Michigander'......born & raised in East Lansing (home of the Spartans), & a 'grad' from MSU...

PS Spartans Football Team is 8-0 overall and 4-0 in the Big Ten Conference and next 'on-the-plate-to-be-served' is the Iowa Hawkeyes in a Big Ten Conference football showdown this Saturday, Oct. 30, 2010, at Iowa City, Iowa.
By the way, my Spartans are off to their best start since their 1966 famed squad opened 9-0, and are two wins shy of matching the school-record 10-0 start of the 1965 team
(I was just a young 'whipper-snapper' back then)

Can't wait, their last game was awesome. What a comeback!
Yup. Mid state, probably closest to MichiganLover.

No kidding! They are having an unbelievable season! I am looking forward to their end result. I am a Nittany Lion, however, my vote is for State when they aren't playing us.

Oops! I am sorry. I just realized this topic should probably be in the Barbershop area. Mods, please feel free to move it. Thanks!

Not in the slightest! You are about 15 minutes east of me! It's all good. You are probably the closest to me thus far.
