Calendars Featuring Michigan and the Great Lakes

If you're a Michigan or a Great Lakes lover, as I am, you'll find some very special calendars here that showcase the state and the surrounding Great Lakes.

I've lived in Michigan for over half of my life, and I love the state for its varied scenic beauty. Michigan is called the "Great Lakes State" because it is bounded by four of the five Great Lakes: Lake Superior, Lake MIchigan, Lake Huron, and Lake Erie. The fifth Great Lake, Lake Ontario, is a few hours drive further east.

Michigan Scenic Calendars

Michigan has beautiful and varied natural scenery. The state has the longest freshwater shoreline of any political subdivision in the world (Michigan: Wikipedia), bounded by 4 of the 5 Great Lakes, as well as many inland lakes, ponds, rivers, streams, waterfalls, and marshes. Michigan also has lush forests and rolling farmland, along with many natural and man-made landmarks.

    I lived in South Bend, Indiana for 12 years, just 5 miles from the Michigan state line. I loved to go to the lakeshore, there are some great places there. It's a lovely part of the USA.

From a review:
In his newest book, Dennis (From a Wooden Canoe) offers an engrossing description of being a crew member on the schooner Malabar on a six-week trip through the waters of Lakes Huron, Ontario, Michigan, Erie and Superior. Capt. Hajo Knuttel and other crew members such as Tim, the ship's creative cook, spring to life in this modern adventure tale. Dennis weaves anecdotes from his childhood, such as a family-fishing trip on Lake Michigan, together with informed commentary on the natural history of the lakes and the people who live there as well as evocative descriptions of the enchanting view of the forests along Lake Superior from the schooner.
