I'm talking about anything within a day trip of your location. That you've never been to.

Why have you never gone? What's keeping you from going now?

The upper peninsula in Michigan. Lived in SE Michigan for 45 years.

I've always wanted to go up there Island hopping in the summer!

Edit: wow, I was off by a whole state, the below is actually in Minnesota!

I've always been a fan of map oddities. Oak Island in Michigan or fort Charles, where the closest land crossing is Canada, they seem so interesting

I spent a whole afternoon using Google maps to go around Jim's corner

Sorry, you mean Canada, right?

Nope. I love our northern (southern) neighbors but the UP is ‘Murica for sure.

Correct. This is but a jab at Fox News. Or maybe we had just sent in some troops from the north, armed with fresh maple Fritters and poutine.
