Mike is the author of ThumbWind.com, An ongoing project to show the highlights of Michigan's Upper Thumb, a gem of a region a short drive from Metro Detroit. Designated as the Wind Energy Capital of the Great Lakes, the Upper Thumb is a dichotomy of farming, renewable energy production, and the pristine playgrounds of our sugar sand beaches along Saginaw Bay.

I love this area and seek events to share. From Caseville’s famous Cheeseburger festival, Sailing on Saginaw Bay, and Wind Farm development across the Thumb. We look for the fun the region has to offer and pass on the “Best of the Thumb.”
