Happy birthday, Michigan! Our beautiful state is 186 years young today, having entered the union on January 26, 1837. Here are some fun facts about Michigan:
• If you straighten out the shoreline of Lake Superior, it would stretch from Duluth, Minnesota, to the Bahamas.
• We're home to the first three tunnels in the world to connect two different countries: the Detroit/Windsor Tunnel, the St. Clair Tunnel (Port Huron to Sarnia), and the Michigan Central Railway Tunnel.
• Every Michigan resident is within six miles of a fresh water source.
• We have the most lighthouses of any state in the union.
• Michigan (specifically Detroit) is the only place in the lower 48 states where you can look south into Canada. (But, as much as we love to belt out "...born and raised in South Detroit!" at Red Wings games, it doesn't actually exist.)
What do YOU love about Michigan?
