Some people welcome winter in Michigan with open arms, while others watch the calendar until springβs warmth returns.

Laura Herberg, reporter for Bridge Michigan, joinedΒ The Metro to walk us through the Michigan Dreaming Winter Bucket List.
12 activities made this yearβs winter weather fun bucket list, with dog sledding in the Upper Peninsula taking the top spot and drop-in hockey on Belle Isle representing Southeast Michigan.
