Michigan


Sent to me inside a book in 2004.

Greetings from Michigan.
Nickname: The Wolverine State
1995 population 9,295,296.
Area in square miles: 56,959.
Entered the Union: January 26, 1837.

I find I recognise many of the place names, including Mackinac Island. A few months ago, in a very untimely way, I posted a card showing autumn colours.

    What an odd-shaped place! Mackinac Island? So out of place in a state whose main preoccupation is the manufacture of automobiles, no?

    And that's the weird thing. Cars banned on the island, and yet Detroit so close by. I'm told the island is beautiful, and a very romantic setting.

Welcome to my postcard collection! I love hearing what you think of the cards - but spam WILL be deleted.
