Moon Michigan in the Spotlight

Sometimes, I’m slow to report good news, but I do catch up eventually. As I shared in a previous post [2], one of my travel guides, Moon Michigan [3], appeared in bookstores back in May, but since then, smaller excerpts of this comprehensive guidebook have become available.

At last count, there are five offshoots of Moon Michigan, including Moon Spotlight Michigan’s Traverse Bays & Mackinac Island [4], an easy-to-carry guide that covers two of the more popular regions in the northern half of the Lower Peninsula. Besides handy maps and sightseeing highlights, you’ll find plenty of information about Traverse City festivals, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, the wineries of the Leelanau and Old Mission Peninsulas, resort towns like Charlevoix and Petoskey, the outdoor activities that abound in northeastern Michigan, and, of course, Mackinac Island.

Perhaps even handier, you can now purchase and wirelessly download certain chapters of Moon Michigan onto the Amazon Kindle. These four e-books include Moon Detroit & Southeast Michigan [5], Moon Ann Arbor & the Michigan Heartland [6], Moon Traverse City & Mackinac Island [7], and Moon Michigan’s Upper Peninsula [8]. So, any way you slice it – or, um, download it – you can get the details you need to explore the amazingly diverse Great Lakes State.

Just because the summer is over doesn’t mean it’s too late to see Michigan. With a wide array of cultural attractions and gorgeous landscapes, it’s a wonderful place to visit all year round. Whether amid the vibrant colors of autumn or the snowy blankets of winter, you’ll find a ton of diversions in the colder months, from apple picking at Fruit Acres Farms [9] in Coloma to the I-500 Snowmobile Race [10] in Sault Ste. Marie. So, plan a trip to Michigan soon – and don’t forget to bring one of these helpful guides with you.
