I am one of the people who really enjoy the Pure Michigan (award winning ad campaign, I might add) tourism radio and tv ads. So, just for fun on this Friday afternoon I thought I would share the ad that runs in the fall. You can view all of the ads and vote in various polls at my Pure Michigan page.
Over the weekend we visited the St. Joe Valley Old Engine Association Antique Tractor and Engine Show held on their show grounds at Boot Hill Ranch near Jones, Michigan. I grew up not far from Boot Hill Ranch and have fond memories of attending shows in my younger years. This year's show featured Case tractors as well as vintage Sears, Craftsman, and David Bradley garden tractors. They had an obstacle course set up for the garden tractors, a threshing demonstration, steam powered sawmill, and some great food.
Speaking of the sawmill - here is a brief clip of it in action. I didn't have my tripod with me so it wasn't the steadiest of videos.
I don't know what their attendance figures were, but we had to park quite a ways from the gate and it seemed to be well attended. One thing I've noticed this summer at different festivals and events in Michigan is that they seem to be better attended than in recent years. I wonder if high gas prices are encouraging folks to stick closer to home.
I found this video of Tiger Stadium's demolition on YouTube this afternoon. I don't mean to be so heavy these days on the demolition of Tiger Stadium, but it's not everyday that a historic Michigan structure with so many fans is ripped down.
This was recorded by someone from www.BuildingsofDetroit.com.
Paradise, Michigan shows how to finish off a fireworks display in this video taken from the 2007 fireworks show. For those of you who cannot wait for your local displays tonight - here's a little taste.

Greensky Bluegrass got their start in the Kalamazoo area back in 2000. The members are - Michael Arlen Bont (banjo), Dave Bruzza (guitar), Anders Beck (dobro), Michael Devol(bass), and Paul Hoffman (mandolin). I first stumbled upon Greensky Bluegrass while searching for Bluegrass music at internetarchive.org. There is a good amount of live recordings from various Greensky Bluegrass concerts available. My current favorite is the December 2006 performance at the Acorn Theater in Three Oaks, Michigan.
