Pure Michigan

If you live in the Midwest (particularly Wisconsin or Illinois), you're probably familiar with the "Pure Michigan" ad campaign. Even though my heart belongs to my home state of Wisconsin, I find these ads to be incredibly compelling. (Check out the link below if you don't know what I'm talking about...video of ad from michigan.org).

If you're wondering why I'm pushing Michigan, it's because "Yes, there really IS a Kalamazoo." (Another ad campaign for, you guessed it, the town of Kalamazoo. T-shirts, mugs and bumper stickers available. Seriously.)

And...we are moving there! Ed has accepted a job with Bell's Brewery (yep, he'll still be making beer!) in Kalamazoo. We're still working out a lot of moving logistics, but sometime this fall, our family of four will become residents of Michigan. While we'll miss all our friends in St. Louis, we are VERY excited for this (big) change and looking forward to all it has to offer. We'll keep you posted...
