Any Yoopers on this board?

I've never posted on this board but it seems like the one I'm looking for. I was born and raised way up in the Keweenaw. Getting married in Copper Harbor in 3 weeks and getting settled into grad school. Just figured I'd drop in an introduce myself.

Re: Any Yoopers on this board?

  •  Welcome.  

    My parents were raised in Lake Linden. We used to go up there every summer. I had to go back for a funeral last summer.  I have a friend in Calumet and hope to go visit her some time.

     Congrats on your upcoming wedding.

  • Welcome!

    I thought we had one yooper (isn't sweetestlove from the UP?), but she doesn't post much.

    MH's best friend's sister lives in Copper Harbor half the year.

    I hope your wedding goes well!

  • I'm a yooper Smile I've lived in Grand Rapids for 7 years now, but before that I lived in the U.P.
  • Hi!  Sweetestlove (as KerCo mentioned) lives in the Soo.  I believe she's our only current Yooper.

    Regardless, you're more than welcome to hang out on this board with us!  Actually, not everyone here even lives in Michigan.

    Congrats on your upcoming wedding!

    ETA: Obviously I have no idea what I'm talking about since LBethG already proved my statement about Sweetestlove being the only Yooper wrong!

  • Thanks for the welcome! I'm actually starting grad school at Iowa so I don't officially live in Michigan anymore either. I just like keeping connected. And it will always be home.

  • Welcome!!  We've got a cabin on Lake Medora up in Copper Harbor.  LOVE LOVE LOVE it up there!
  • Lake Medora is so beautiful. I'm actually having my Bachelorette Party out there. One of my bridesmaids' parents have a camp on the back side of the lake so we're having a "spa day" out there and then hitting up the Copper Harbor bars.
