The Big Mac! Still the Western Hemisphere's longest suspension bridge, just like the day it was finished in 1957. Here's to connecting America's 2 best peninsulas!

🎉 Happy Birthday to Michigan-born legend Anthony Kiedis! Born in Grand Rapids, he went from the Mitten State to singing into the mic for millions. “It seems like the chaos of this world is accelerating, but so is the beauty in the consciousness of more and more people.”

Happy Halloween, Michigan! Superman looks upset. (Kodachrome photo taken by a MI 1st-grade teacher in 1958).

There’s Halloween… and then there’s Halloween in Romeo. 👻 Pumpkins on porches. Main Street glowing. Every corner feeling like a movie set. Small town, big Halloween energy.

Every fall, Dearborn’s Greenfield Village transforms into a glowing, costumed wonderland, with thousands of hand-carved jack-o-lanterns lighting the paths and historic streets coming alive after dark. It is spooky, it is stunning, and it is pure Michigan magic.

Few things are as amazing as Manistee National Forest! Lying between the shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Huron in the northern half of Michigan's Lower Peninsula is over 540,000 acres of wilderness perfect for hiking, fishing, camping, and all-around exploring!

Chippewa legend has it that a mother bear and her cubs were forced into Lake Michigan to escape a forest fire. The mother bear turned to realize her cubs were not behind her. She waits searching... That bluff is Sleeping Bear Dunes, a Michigan national lakeshore since 1977.
