Michigan, My Michigan

Things I like about living in Michigan:
  • Spring: beautiful flowers, green grass, warm days, cool evenings.
  • Summer: riding my bike on a warm evening; realizing that even though I'm 10 miles away and it's 9 p.m., I can easily make it home before dark.
  • Fall: the explosion of color, brisk air that makes a sweater feel just perfect.
Things I don't like about living in Michigan:
  • The other ten months.

We lived in Lansing from Dec 1955 to April 1958. Smells are some of my most vivid memories. The smell of apple and pear orchards.

Also visited grandparents in Pontiac a couple of times a year from then till about 1970. Always thought there was a big jump in prosperity and luxury there in comparison to NE Arkansas. The presence of so much water also lent an air of relaxation and good feeling.
