A Formal Farewell

I honestly have nothing but {mostly} good things to say about living here in the state that looks like a mitten. Yes, I too describe locations in Michigan by holding up my hand and pointing. It's a thing here, guys, don't worry. Our first few months here in the summer were spent enjoying much cooler temperatures then we were used to and exploring all things outdoors. We went to the Zoo, Greenfield Village & a local orchard for only the freshest of fruits and veggies. I also made sure to make it to the lake at least once a week and dip my toes in the ice cold water. This winter has been a long one. It has finally started to warm up, and the grass is getting greener & greener with each new day. Morning rain is even help bring the trees to life, and all the geese are flying back up North. Before we know it, we will pack up and head West to where our hearts feel at home. I have a feeling all of our memories of this place will be well kept in our minds, and especially all of our friends. The saying is true, Mid-Westerners are seriously some of the friendliest people around.
