My Story in Photos- The Vacation Edition

One of my family's favorite spots for vacation is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. We look forward to a whole week of adventure, learning and relaxation all wrapped into one.

Last year one of the places we visited was an abandoned town called Fayette. It was a town built around the iron ore business. We got to walk through buildings and read and see first hand how these families lived back in the 1800's. Beautiful and educational!

Of course while your in Michigan you always have to take time to enjoy the gorgeous beaches...

And don't forget to bring your fishing pole and bait, because there will be plenty of time for trying to catch the big one...

  6. Girl, you are speaking my language!!! I am a MI girl, and when you say MI, most people think of Detroit. You showed the pictures of Mi that are close to my heart. That is why I love my state-and I am heading North myself to hang out for the summer on Lake Huron-which I think is the prettiest...;0)
