Autumn in Michigan: Something for Everyone
The crowds and traffic have subsided, the harvests are bountiful and the mosquitoes are few and far between. What we're trying to say is that autumn is perfect time to get out and enjoy a color tour, take in a late season festival or event, go camping or hit one of Michigan's numerous wineries and pick up a few bottles for holiday gifts or get-togethers.

NPR explores Michigan's Upper Peninsula
NPR ran a special series a few weeks back exploring the culture, traditions and economy of Michigan's Upper Peninsula that we felt was worth bubbling back up. In addition to the articles there are also audio pieces worth checking out in - Michigan's Upper Peninsula: A Trip U.P. North.

Michigan apples, not only delicious but prized
Fall is here and that means it is once again time to enjoy Michigan's largest and most valuable crop - the apple. 2009 is seeing the largest harvest in nearly 10 years with an expected haul of 26 million bushels compared to the typical crop of 20 million bushels.
