no one in the tip of the thumb by bad axe or port austin?

Man, can you believe the weather they've been getting for the last week? I can not fathom what they've been through. First there was a winter storm warning that lasted more than 48 hours straight. Now they're looking at another 12-22" in the next 24 hours.

Even the snowmen have packed it up and moved to Essexville.

The geographic center of the entire state is Wexford, don't know about the LP specifically.....

Will give you a hint...it's the epicenter of the PBB contamination 30 years ago...

Dearborn here! West-side! Anyone know of any good churches nearby? I used to go to Northridge in Plymouth when I lived in Livonia (which isn't THAT far from Dearborn) but my poor little car can't take much anymore!

Moving back to MI, gonna live in GR this time. Not the best place to live, but good enough for now.

BTW, I have a trivia question for all the good "trolls" from the lower peninsula:

Which town in the geographic center of the mitten?

St. Louis, MI claims to be the geographic center of the LP. I knew someone from there once.

More than a claim. The National Geographic Survey actually erected a pillar at the exact spot. It's in a park on M-46, just east of the lake.

BTW, you're making a good move going to GR...they at least have a decent number of available jobs.

GR rox hardcore!

Born and raised in Sparta (10 miles N of GR), moved to Kent City (20 miles N of GR) in '98 I think. Left my family behind in 2001 to experience the clear blue skies of Washington State. Those blue skies are up there above them dark clouds somehwere.

I live in Detroit half the time and Akron, Ohio half the time. Im about to get my own appt. in the Detroit area (possibly Grosse Pointe Park). If anyone lives around the East Detroit area feel free to email me or something.

Grosse Pointe Park is cool......

 

[feral]

Yay St. Louis. I live in Saginaw. It's fantabulous.

 

[Motor City Christian]

Hi feral, it's been awhile. Good to see you around. I thought you had left, so happy you didn't.

 

[progressivegal]

I'm from Grand Rapids.

 

[skilltroks]

yay, for GR!

I went to college in Hillsdale. Anyone ever heard of Hillsdale? Before that I lived in Olivet, but went to HS at the Creek Area Math and Science Center. Yeah, big nerd here! Now I live in Maryland and am terribly homesick.

 

[Specter]

Grand Rapids, Michigan, here!

 

[progressivegal]

My aunts ex girlfriend was from Hillsdale, I remember her always talking about it, and they would go often to visit her family. She had a nephew who went to the school there and I remember (at age 9, he was 11
) thinking he was "sooo cute!"

 

[basho1ka]

I'm from Lapeer. Don't live in MI anymore though

 

[nebulacafe]

Saline, Michigan. So close to Ann Arbor that we are qualified to steal their social scene while still having a small town feel.

I grew up in GR and moved to Cadillac in middle school. I since crossed the pond to IL however.
