Normally, I do not report when I write and make a particular Michigan Travel Tips document, but this time, I am making the note. This document was put together on Wednesday, June 4, 2025, mostly during the middle of the day. I put it together on that date, because I was sort of forced to do the work on the day, since it was raining outside in Presque Isle County, Michigan, where I was and where I had been for over the past week or so. Over the past week or so--with dry weather--I worked outside to clean up more of the tree mess from the big ice storm of the county (and more) of late March 2025. For instance, over a period of eight days, I made at least 144 round-trip trips of 1,000 feet (plus) with a wheel-barrow-like thing or with big tree limbs in tow to a burn pit (which was sort on a beach of Lake Huron) to get rid of tree limbs, tree crippy-crap, and pine needles, and more, and, then, I still had the main parts (trunks) of some nine trees to cut up and move, and, by the way, I had to take time to change rotors on a few wheels of three vehicles. Incidentally, in Upper Michigan, if you only go to town once a week and you need not hit the brakes in town but a few times on each trip, rotors and pad systems of disc brakes can quickly go to crap and go to rust, and I note that one vehicle had to sit for about three months while I was away from it, taking care of someone what had been in the hospital in pneumonia and then in PT for some weeks. Oh, I have report in some documents that I have at the website for The Hologlobe Press some information about the ice storm, and I have noted how the media in the Detroit area did a crappy job in letting people known what was happening in northern Lower Michigan over the days after the ice storm had hit. The Detroit Free Press, for instance, did a crappy job, but it is more concerned with pushing out political crap. On May 23, 2025, the newspaper published a story called "DNR to holiday travelers: Prepare for shock Up North" [Witsil, Frank. "DNR to holiday travelers: Prepare for a shock Up North." Detroit Free Press, 23 May 2025, pp. 1A and 3A,]. Look at this crappy opening to the article--"If you're headed Up North for the holiday weekend, the Michigan Department of Natural Resources is warning that you may be in for an unpleasant surpise: The tree damage from a deadly spring ice storm may be unsettling....". Such girly thalk that is, such crap that theme is. The next the article had--"It's so bad, the agency charged with maintaining state parks, forests and recreation areas sent an email to Michiganders on Wednesday that cautioned the lush-green landscape that you are used to, 'may look different.' To put the storm damage in context, the state DNR said, it covers more than 3 million acres. That, according to the state, is an even larger area than was destroyd in the Great Michigan Fire of 1871, which every Michigan third grader learns swept across the state and burned down abou 2.5 milliion acres of forests....". So, the Detroit Free Press finally pushed out a story--nearly two months later--that sort of hinted at the scope of the storm. By the way, the story noted--"....In Kalamazoo County, a tree struck a vehicle, killing three children, ages 11, 4 and 2....". Is not that really late news or old news? Should not have been reported a couple months ago in a story about storm damage in the state, especially in roughly the northern quarter of the Lower Peninsula. In a way, the theme of the story was to get people to watch out for themselves as they go through wooded area, since tree limbs above could be dangling and ready to fall at any moment. And that covers that, and this time Michigan Travel Tips takes you to a place down in Kalamazoo County, which is in southwestern Lower Michigan, and that place is hundreds of miles from where I this document--a Michigan Travel Tips document--was written.
Warning announcement! Because of incidents at schools for children and incidents at other places for people in general tied to "Sharia" or "Islamic Law" or even the religion/political system known as "Islam," I now regularly have this paragraph as a part of each edition of Michigan Travel Tips. The governmental system of the United States of America based on The U.S. Constitution and "Sharia" or, informally, Islamic law, are not compatible and cannot co-exist, and one reason is "Sharia" (et cetera) is a political system, in which there is one-party rule, and that one party is basically made up or controlled by religious leaders who base all the ways of their culture or society on "Sharia" or "Islamic Law." Those who uphold and practice "Sharia" have no tolerance for the existence of Christianity or Buddhism or Hinduism or non-religion, and that is a fact, and "Sharia" is a political system in which women are second-rate human bodies and in which clergy can be involved in determining business transactions, and there is no "freedom of speech" tied to politics in a society related to "Sharia." When you travel around Michigan and in other states of the country, watch for signs that rotten people are trying to teach you or family members, especially children, that "Sharia" is good and "Allah" is good and teach you or family members that the United States of America is bad and that, for instance, Christianity and Buddhism and Hinduism are bad, which I have evidence is happening and which is being brought about by people who are clearly working to make "Sharia" a dominant political system in the world (it is a political system as rotten as socialism and fascism and communism are, since it promotes violence and thuggery and coercion, and it promotes killing of non-followers behind the face of religion and a god, Allah). By the way, a society based on "Sharia" really creates nothing in the long run and does not advance the human society as a whole since it is too busy suppressing the ideas of people and keeping the ideas of the society based on ways of only a few minds up front (the political leaders), whose main purpose is to keep themselves enriched through the work of others, the many--it is a gang-run society really. Yes, if you run across people pushing the idea that Muslim stuff--particularly the true The Quran and not the translations of The Quran that are faked to hide the true nature of Islam--is better than the U.S. is, especially to little children, go public and make it known to other good people and fight back against it.
Kalamazoo County is an area where you will find such places as Kalamazoo (the city), Parchment (a city and not the writing-related stuff), and Portage (a city and not porage stuff), and it is where Kalamazoo Valley Community College exists, and at that college is a museum called the Kalamazoo Valley Museum, the history of which goes back to the 1920s. Officially, the Kalamazoo Valley Museum is located at 230 North Rose Street in Kalamazoo. I discovered recently that the museum as a special exhibit that is tied to England and the Minnesota Children's Musuem. First, for several decades, people have been seeing a number of animation productions (stop-motion animation stuff) from a company called Aardman that feature such main characters as Wallace and Gromit. Second, based on that stuff, the Minnesota Children's Museum created an exhibit based on the video productions, and it is called "Wallace & Gromit and Shaun the Sheep; Shear Genius!", and now that exhibit--a hands-on exhibit--for little children especially is at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum. The exhibit is scheduled to be at the museum through August 31, 2025, and, basically, the place is open to visitors from ten to 4:00 p.m. from Tuesday to Saturday and from noon to 4:00 p.m. on Sunday. The exhibit is set up on the third floor, and other floors have other stuff to see. The museum has a planetarium, which I was unaware of until I did updated research on the place. In total, the place has some 60,000 pieces in the collection. Some of the pieces are on display through the "Shadow Box Wall," a large wall. Another exhibit that will exist at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum till August 31, 2025, is called "The Art of Advertising," and it has gadgets and other things related to advertising products and such of the Kalamazoo area from the 1800s to today. And one of the permanent exhibits is "Mystery of the Mummy." And, in nessence, people can take--on Saturday or Wednesday through August 30, 2025--"Summer Rain Garden Tours" at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum. A few of the other features of the musuem are the Children's Landscape, the Innovation Lab, and the Innovation Gallery. And that is a first look in a Michigan Travel Tips document at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum.
And now that I am done at the Kalamazoo Valley Museum for now, I can get back to tree debris, though maybe not today, since things are still wet outside. I guess I could get out the leaf blower and dry things off. Ah, heck with that!
Enjoy your traveling in Michigan!
Stay well!
Victor
