As you we were born and raised here in wonderful Michigan. Winters are getting harder to take as our years tic buy. In our late 50's and talk a lot about leaving when retired. I can see that happening, especially now. Hate winter. Don't ski, snowmobile, so not much to do offsetting the doldrums.
We just made our reservations for up north in Traverse city for July. We usually do Frakenmuth in May and another during the summer. Probably do Petosky as well. A couple more scattered in. Then Hawaii in November. This surely helps us get through these dreadful winter days. But there is the trailer show first week in Febuary if your near Novi, MI. Maybe that will help you get through.
