Michigan is way more interesting than I thought. From ancient lava flows and mountain ranges, to copper mines and groundbreaking experiments, this channel follows my adventures trying to better understand and connect with the corner of the planet that I call home. You'll find a lot of science, a bit of history, and a good bucket load of enthusiasm. I'm glad you're here!
