I have been in the Houghton Lake area for about 65 years. I like to get away to the "City" for cultural events and shopping, but I am ALWAYS happy to get back home! It is so comforting to see the same merchants year after year. And they, of course, also recognize the people who come back year after year. I didn't have a job that brought me into contact with a lot of people. So, I don't know a lot of people here. However, I happened to know almost all of the folks who showed you around! The Roscommon County episode was fantastic. I'd like to see one on summer activities!

Barbara Wiese There is so much to do in the Curtis area. Swimming, fishing, boating, lots of sightseeing sites, and of course all the winter fun. A perfect place for a relaxing vacation.

I had no idea these trails existed in and around Bay City & Saginaw. These are must see & must hike trails in my to-do list. So excited to share this with my family - thank you for enlightening me.

Can you tell me what campground was in the ad with Tim Allen speaking just after the lighthouse? You can see large beach and campers. Thank you. Your show always gives us great travel ideas.

I only caught the last part of this show but I was amazed at the trail that I saw that I never knew existed! I wish I had seen the whole episode! I would love to look at a guide for trails in Michigan. I am so very glad to have found this show! I will definitely watch it again! Thank you for showing Michiganders what we are missing so we can take advantage of all that we have here in our own state!

I liked the whole tour. For me it would be close since I live in Gaylord, MI. It gives me an idea for a road trip in my 1968 Corvette with the top down on a nice summer day.

Captivated by the beauty you've captured in this documentary! The lapping of waters on a shore, the roar of the falls, the views of beach and Lake Superior, the walk through the trees, bring a smile to my face thinking of these things I've experienced in my 45 years here in Michigan.

I enjoyed your show, the Ludington area is "Hallowed Ground" for us. My best friend & his wife lived in southern Ohio & they enjoyed Ludington for years. He passed in 2013 & his widow had a bench commissioned in the marina park, the bench is next to the abstract sculpture & faces out to the west, a perfect spot to watch the SS Badger come and go!

As one who has kayaked on the Chippewa, River, the Tittabawassee River, and Sanford Lake and who has taken boat trips on the Saginaw River and who has enjoyed the tall ships festival, I enjoyed the show. Last summer, we took a cruise to Charity Island. I was disappointed that it was not included.

I thoroughly enjoyed this trip back in time and love the UP as well. I wanted to retire there but it was too far from kids and as a senior, hospitals were important. I chose Charlevoix as a good option. I go into the UP often and enjoy nature and my memories of previous trips. I also enjoy your page. It is the only FB page that I haven't seen political crap and horrible name calling.

Another great show(s), it was a pleasure to see mini snippets to other areas of interest in Roscommon area. We go camping every year in September at Higgins Lake State Park and it was nice to see other attractions and activities to do. Great show we love it. Thanks again!!

I loved being able to see new places to explore and not have to go. With a family of 5, it becomes difficult going too far and not knowing what we'll see. We love the outdoors and explore often!

Summer days and nights, it's what camping is about. Long walks and reading by the camp site is just what you need to unwind. The trip along U.S. 2 is one of the best. A journey west to visit family is what I remember most. Love it!!
