I live in SW Michigan, and love that my city has been making new trails and small parks throughout the past decade.
The outdoors is awesome! It’s nice when a paved trail leads to a bridge over a small stream with waterfowl. Even better when it’s so quiet it feels like your own little secret.
Michigan has wacky weather, but it also makes for a beautiful landscape. I love spotting animals as well. Heck, there are several kinds that visit my backyard regularly!
I love owls, and have a friend who is licensed to rehab raptor birds (mostly hawks and owls). I try to make an annual trip to see all her owls.
Trying to think of any specific landmarks or sites I enjoy most in Michigan. I’d like to try walking some of the Kal-Haven trail someday. (Unfortunately, I can only walk short distances without pain.) I love to kayak, though!
