Ann Arbor is so much more than just the home to the University of Michigan (photo c/o Destination Ann Arbor) |
When I told my husband I was going to Ann Arbor for a getaway, he stared at me perplexed. “But, you hate the cold,” he sputtered. “And, you don’t even like college sports.” He had a point, but I also have a slight obsession with outerwear and this trip would give me a chance to break some of my favorites out of the closet where they generally live in hibernation. Located in southeast Michigan's Lower Peninsula, Ann Arbor lies at the center of a greater collection of communities in Washtenaw County. Southwest and American Airlines both fly direct to Detroit, and Ann Arbor is a mere 30-minute drive from the airport, making it an easy destination.
