    Default Hello from Northern Michigan

    Hi everyone,
    My name is Sue and I live in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
    I would very much like to change my overspending ways and you guys really inspire me.
    I love reading all of your signatures and see your progress!
    I love to garden and read. I also collect and sell old costume jewelry for a fun hobby.
    I am married and I have 2 furbaby cats, Ruby Blue and ZuZu.
    Best Wishes,
    Sue

    Welcome to the Village!
    I have an Aunt who lives in the UP in Burgland. We enjoy going to visit her. Lake in the clouds is one of our favorite parks. DH also has a high school friend who runs a resort in the up also.

    Hi, Sue! Welcome! It's so good to see someone here from the Yoop. You will read under my avatar, that I am from Ohio. But we have a cabin up here, and just arrived last night!

    We usually spend the summers here (now that dh is retired) but are trying to spend more and more time. We have been coming up here for 30 years, but we just built the cabin 13 years ago. It is beautiful up here! (We came from daffodils and green grass and buds on the trees in Ohio, and there is SNOW back here in the woods! ) There is still quite a BIT of snow where they plowed it up against the deck and stuff.

    Anyway.......Welcome!
    ______
