Autumn in Michigan: Something for Everyone
The crowds and traffic have subsided, the harvests are bountiful and the mosquitoes are few and far between. What we're trying to say is that autumn is perfect time to get out and enjoy a color tour, take in a late season festival or event, go camping or hit one of Michigan's numerous wineries and pick up a few bottles for holiday gifts or get-togethers.

In the spirit of giving (or at least giving away) Absolute Michigan is offering a giveaway of a free couple's ticket to the weekend of November 14 & 15. Click on in to win!
