One more reason I avoid the Upper Peninsula like it has a Bubonic Plague/Smallpox/Ebola hybrid disease.

I took a motorcycle trip around the Canada side of Superior in 2006. We were down around Sault Ste. Marie heading north toward WaWa when I first encountered winds off the lake. My bike's temp gauge went from high 80's down to high 30's in JUNE! Holy cow! I can't imagine living year round in the UP or on the Canada side of that giant icebox!

I have absolutely no use for the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
Wayyyyyy too much wilderness. I have only been past St. Ignace (just across Mackinac bridge) once in the past 40 years. Newberry in 1981 for a cousins graduation party.
Never further than that, and that was PLENTY. Wilderness and Prisons that don't have enough rioting.

Failure may not be an OPTION, but it is ALWAYS a POSSIBILITY.
ALL systems are GO for MAYHEM, CHAOS, and HAVOC !
