I love seeing this sign! Photo from our most recent trip to Pennsylvania and Maryland.

Journaling says:There is no better sight on the horizon then the beautiful blue sign with the words “Welcome to Michigan. Great Lakes - Great Times.” As eager as I am to leave on an adventure to far off destinations, I am just as eager to see that old familiar sign. It is a sign that I am home. Crossing the border always prompts excited cheers of joy and sometimes tears. I love Michigan, but it often takes on a trip to reminds me just how much I love it. Where else in the United States can you use your hand to point to where you are from? With each mile we drive inside in Michigan it feels more and more like home. All the familiar sights and sometimes even smells. Signs we remember. Names of places we’ve been. Names of places where friends and family live. Surrounded by cars with white and blue plates somehow just feels right. Each mile we go along I-75 brings us closer to home. There is no better feeling than being back home.
