From the Power of the Big Lakes to the Majesty of the Dunes...from the Beauty of the Sunsets to the gentle sounds of the songbirds, Michigan Character shines all over this state!

Michigan's Beauty beckons all who to come, rest, and enjoy. Every pore of our beings drinks in its Natural Beauty, 'till we are filled! And oh, what a feast! The rivers and lakes, the wildflowers and trees, the rolling hills and the breathtaking vistas fill us with wonder and appreciation.

Michigan's beauty, home to the Elk, Trout, and Coyote, also provide a haven for man. Man in inspired by her, and he is made better by the experience.

Michigan's lighthouses rise above, giving light to the ships on the "freshwater sea", and inspiring a generation of Michiganders to 'look up'! Michigan's future, like her past, is closely linked to her Character...the Character of the land, as well as the Character of the people. Hard working, warm hearted, family-oriented people who live their lives in community, never far from reminders of Creation's beauty and power.

Take solace, Michigan, in the message of the wind rushing through the Dunegrass...take comfort, Michigan, in the sunset beckoning you to the shoreline...Take courage, Michigan in the Lights rising above it all--your Best Days lie ahead!
