Given 2 week's vacation, surely there's somewhere you'd like to stay in Michigan--even if it was on the Upper Peninsula.

Why?
With the entire United States to explore, why stay in the same state? It's like a gift to have two weeks off of work. Why in the world would you choose to stay in the same place that you have lived your entire life? I can go just about anywhere in the state for a long weekend.
Why not go to DC, or NYC, or Assateague Island (our trip this summer), or Yellowstone or the Grand Canyon or ...........
Completely agree with that. I think two days driving on each end is a limit though to not be wore out. As I get older, I want to get home with at least a day to spare to rest before work as well.
We've set a goal of all the CONUS National Parks before kids graduate college. We like bobbing and weaving states as well to catch as many as possible. Have to stop and do something though or it doesn't count as a state visited.
