As part of exploring and falling more in love with Michigan, we spent some time exploring the Thumb.

We did it with #MIAwesomeList and checking out some new-to-us areas of Michigan’s Thumb.

This was a family-friendly trip, as we traveled as a family of 6, and even brought our dog!

We traveled in early June, when Michigan weather can be unpredictable.

So our trip had a lot of different temperatures to work with.
