Can you see The Mitten? Michiganites have a way of communicating geographical location by using their hands!
The left palm is the Upper Peninsula and the right palm is the Lower Peninsula. All you have to do is to place your left palm above your right palm and you will have a Map of the Great Lakes State. We spent our vacation in the vicinity of The Thumb in the Lower Peninsula specifically the south east area..
Does this next photo (from goggle images) help you to see what I am trying to explain? It was a lot of fun listening to "the relatives" describing to me where towns and cities were located by using their hands. I have never seen anything like that in the past. I love learning new things.
More about our vacation yet to come.
I hope you a having a Fabulous Day.
