Natural Disasters & Weather Related Current Events

Mannn....barely even got to have any fun in Michigan this year. It's been all crappy little 2-4 inch garbage, multiple of them. We haven't had a proper 12" snow storm in years, I remember I had so much fun in my Landcruiser in the last one. I hate cold and snow but if it's gonna snow at least let it be legit...

Take a weekend trip to the upper - they usually got more than enough snow.

That's the problem with Michigan all the beauty and fun is hours away......I can drive 20 minutes and be in the "country" but nothing is there, maybe a cider mill in the fall. I live in a small city and 20 minutes from me is an animal rescue I volunteer at and it's like a different world, but nothing to do out there it's just farms, construction yards and scattered houses. Hour away all touristy crap, 2 hours still touristy, 3 hours getting better but still touristy lake towns, 4 hours and you're getting to the good stuff......but the U P is about 7 hours at minimum. Never been up there to be honest which is kinda sad and I want to get to it eventually but my main friends are definitely not the type to be doing outdoorsy stuff like that as their first choice. Not to say they wouldn't enjoy it once we got there but if I tell them "hey lets take a weekend drive up north" they'll reply with "Frankie the flight to miami is shorter" haha

You were looking for something that will get You out of the house more often. Taking a road trip somewhere You've never been before, doesn't sound like the worst idea. Not saying You have to go all the way up to Copper Harbor.

Hmmm....maybe when the weather breaks a bit, good call brother. I honestly don't mind a solo trip.

Not this weekend though my sisters have recruited me to take them back to Vegas to see the Backstreet Boys, they won't go to Vegas by themselves 🤣🤦🏻‍♂️
