A Winter Journal, Notes from the Upper Peninsula will be a nature journal, a place to practice my craft, but more-so a place to cope with winter of which I am not fond. My hopes are to better my writing, photography and get through the season with less symptoms of seasonal affective disorder.
Winter in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, some may argue, is here today. But this journey will begin on November 15th, the opening day of deer season. This may change if we receive measurable snow beforehand. The path we take together will end sometime after Easter. We have a long winter here, and where I may do some travel, I think I will for the most part be enduring with the rest of the Yoopers (a term for Upper Peninsula inhabitants).
