This came up in another thread. I know of a few already but was just curious how many fellow "Michiganders" we actually have here.
I'll start it off by checking in from Birch Run.
Sound off!

About half way between Kalkaska and Lake City
BORN in Detroit in '43, and spent the remaining WWII years with my Mother and her folks in Houghton, waiting for Dad to come home from the Canadian Army.
Moved to Canada in '47 once he finished his degree at MCMT, and have never lived in Michigan since then. Still, I have a strong feeling of "identity" with all Yoopers, wherever they may be. Great country.
