Happy 189th birthday, Michigan! Known as the Great Lakes State, every location in Michigan is within 6 miles of a body of water & no more than 85 miles from one of the Great Lakes. In comparison to Detroit, Mi. is still a youngster —the city is set to mark its impressive 325th anniversary this July.
