Unless you’re someone with a deep (pun intended) fascination with the world’s bodies of water, it might be a challenge to fathom just how far down they can go. You can fish on the Great Lakes, go boating, swim, and partake in water sports, all the while enjoying the spectacular views they provide. But how deep is each one? You’d have to dive hundreds of feet below the surface to reach the bottom of each. How many hundreds of feet, though? And how can we truly understand how deep?

Wildlife experts have hit a dead end in their quest to determine how a gray wolf arrived in southern Michigan for the first time in more than 100 years.The wolf was killed in January by a hunter who told authorities that he had mistaken it for a coyote.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

The Motor City. Motown. The D. While Michigan’s largest city may go by many names, Detroit is resilient. It’s the reason the editors of Midwest Living named it the best large city in 2021 and reminded people to quit calling it a comeback. Detroit never gave up. Our culture is just as diverse as our music. Motown Records and Techno were born here. So too were Jack White and Lizzo. As a Midwest Living editor and Detroit resident, I’m proud to call Detroit home.
