One who lives in the U.P. (Upper Peninsula of Michigan, above the bridge): they shovel snow year-round go skiing in -60*F weather without blinking an eye recieve more than a foot of snow in order to get a snow day incoorperate winter activities like snowmobiling and ice fishing into their everyday lives say eh, you'se, and ya alot generally don't care what others think mining and logging were the first things that attracted people to the U.P., and they continue to do so today wear plaid and orange...especially during hunting season don't wear winter jackets until it gets under 0*F sweat and freeze all in one day go camping in igloos in the middle of winter have only 3% of the population of Michigan but 1/3 the land mass almost everyone is of scandinavian decent...like Finnish or Swedish think that the opening day of deer season (Nov. 15) is a 'national' holiday and school is off for at least 3 days worship the Packers (NFL) from Green Bay ((our own state team, the Lions, we don't even like)) feel closer to Canada than to southern "Trolls" (people who live below the bridge) ((want to make a new state)) laugh at people who live less than 50 miles away than the bridge in "Troll-land" (down state) who have never been here (the U.P.)...or freak out when they come here live in God's Country...and sorry, but if you've only driven through the souther part of the U.P., you haven't seen it here. the biggest city is Marquette: population 22,000 people are attatched to pasties and the simpilties of life are never more than a few miles away from any lake, like Lake Superior (WHICH IS HUGE!) and NEVER more than a mile away from any sort of water, like a stream some don't know that there is a drinking age drive 4 hours to Green Bay to the closest REAL mall battle un-paved and un-snow-plowed roads are known for being drug dealers, partiers, hill-billies and red-necks but are really great, kind and fun people.
