"You can find a bit of everything in Michigan: vast rural areas with pristine coastline, water and relaxation and urban areas with sports, entertainment and non-stop activity. The summers are hot, and the winters are cold with snow. Everyone in Michigan lives for the summer and spending it on the water at a lake!"
